"Full yellow-gold. Knockout nose combines apricot, orange, lime, minerals and dried flowers. Big and rich but tightly coiled, with strong acidity and deep minerality intensifying the fruit and powdered stone flavors. Notes of tarragon and anise emerged with aeration. Perhaps most impressive today for its long, palate-staining finish, which features terrific spicy lift, a note of green almond and a captivating peppery pungency. A great example of this grand cru."
