Oh, this is beautiful. Yellow fruits with this sake-like, unfinished moonshine edge, fresh nuts, tangerine, dried herbs, red apple, and a bit sunflower oil. Rich, concentrated and enveloping but the acids keep it racing, mousse like a pillow. Goes on forever. The perpetual reserve method really shows - layers from those blended vintages. Still needs time though.
