The wine displays an incredible balance between tertiary and primary aromas, blending honey, baked apple, buttered croissants, Jerez, cider, mushrooms, smoke and a damp cellar essence. Highly vinous, it possesses great concentration and a very long, evolving aftertaste, showcasing its superb balance. It is fresh and delicious, with a fantastic evolution in the glass and a distinctly salty palate. It's in great shape, and knowledgeable enthusiasts suggest it still has good potential for further development.
