A subtle but not imperceptible trace of wood sets off intensely floral suffused aromas of poached pear, apple and plenty of citrus elements. There is excellent volume and mid-palate density to the rich yet racy larger-scaled flavors that seem to be built on a base of almost pungent minerality before concluding in a powerful, bone dry and sneaky long finish where the only nit worthy of mention is a trace of warmth. The intensity really builds and it is clear that this is still quite backward and developing though 10 to 12 years of keeping should see it at its best.
