This is in a great place right now, paying dividends for its 7 years in the cellar. It's fashionable to criticize this vintage and complain it's cracking up, but whatever those people are tasting, there's no sign of it whatsoever here. This is still young and crackling with chiseled acidity, the fruit complexion somewhat deepened in tone but still florescent. It combines flavors of pears and more luscious tropical fruits like bananas with a pleasantly bitter, peppery edge. — 9 years ago

Like honeydew, with a nice touch of apricots and minerality. — 9 years ago
Oh yesss.
Sexy and salacious, mega complex, unctuous and rich. Huge levels of spices and florals (think peppery saffron sprinkled with honey dust); deep yellow fruit notes (mango, papaya, maracuja). Orange zest and porcini-nuances.
Magnificent, crazy and unique. Hedonistic and cerebral.

About 3 years since my last bottle. This is fantastic now. On the nose: ripe peach, soft yeast, dense honeysuckle, soft petrol..so floral and intense. Fantastic acidity, and amazing density, lemon oil, peach, honey, then dripping with mineral intensity...wet stone, mineral oil, and the fruit recedes, only to reappear as soft lemon on the finish. Absolutely lovely. — 3 years ago

Pure essence of GV. Fresh, intensive with floral and fruits aromas. A bit of minerality and papper. — 10 years ago
