Colour: full gold.
Nose: we’re on another planet here! Totally exceptional, in the same league as very old Yquems and other old white wines of the highest grades. Let’s not be too long, this is fantastically ‘phenolic’, herbal, waxy, sooty and fruity - and immensely complex.
Mouth: a miracle. All the fruits (okay, mainly dates, quinces and figs), all the nuts (macadamia first, very obvious here), all the ‘resins and oils’ and probably hundreds of tiny other flavours, many not even known to Man (don’t get carried away, S.!) Amazing presence, it’s only after a good twenty minutes that it starts to show signs of relative tiredness, which is totally normal of course. Finish: not too long but so complex! It’s the leathery and sooty part that’s the most active at this point.
Comments: a poem.
