Different vintage - 2016. Pale yellow white, excellent clarity. Funk and white floral notes in nose. Faint honey and lactic notes in mouth, dry, long neutral finish, more creamy than mineral, slightly crisp. A hint of spice in aftertaste. Moderate fine-grained skin astringency, noticeable but complementary in context. Needs time to develop. Some wood gradually emerges in nose and mouth, while Riesling varietal flavors (perfumed, slightly bitter) emerge after 45 minutes.
