Quite firm and deep, bright, still somewhat reductive nose with very fine yellow-fruity aromas, some planty spice, a hint of chanterelles, pepper and mineral notes. Taut, cool, tart, juicy, slender fruit, lively, very fine acidity and some grip, smoky nuances, a little resinous herbs, a hint of blackcurrants in the background, clear, also rather dark minerality, persistent, good depth, very elegant style, has tension, very good, cool, polished, taut finish with again relatively dark spice. Gains over days.
