" Yellow colour with golden hues. Lacy perfumed notes, citrus fruits and dried zest, passionfruit, crushed almonds, crème anglaise, salted butter, hot baker's ovens, honeycomb, all mingle together in a scented smoky breeze. The palate defies age. Amazing vitality and verve, almost muscular tension and grip but cashmere soft also in the mouth. The layering of fruit flavours on a bed of minerals covered with bright citrus and creamy autolytic bubbles is breath-taking. The astonishing thing here is the youthful display of intensity and power. A Champagne for the long haul certainly. "
