"Vinified in stainless steel then matured in barrel, this superb 2006 combines exotic fruit and spice scents over ever-expanding limestone power. The volume of the fruit is turned up high, completely filling the crisply lined mineral structure with a bright, sunny richness. The finish lasts for minutes, balancing scents of cardamom, dried pineapple and crushed white stone. Already beautiful, this will only gain from ten years in the cellar."
