"As it usually is, this is a notch up in elegance though the nose is more reserved with discreet hints of pain grillé, anise, green fruit and spiced pear aromas that introduce precise, pure, intense and gorgeously well-defined medium-bodied flavors that also possess a pungent minerality and an utterly beguiling texture on the vibrant and very fresh finish. Good stuff here and recommended."
