Disgorged January 2014. Still very large framed with nice depth and breadth. Acid is running high with years later from the vintage date and will probably need a bit more time to integrate. Lots of stuffing with some decent richness to help offset the acidity. Cellar time should reward those who wait, if give it a few more years.

90% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot, open for 2hrs and served from Zalto universal. Full and rich nose, lemon cream, biscuit, dense and layered but fresh and a touch airy at the same time. Lovely mouth, pillowy and soft with tart lemon acid on the rear. Holds up to food well, a bit angular on its own, probably needs some bottle time as it seems unintegrated. Over time I'd like to see the acid rounded out a bit and integrated some more, lots of promise here.

Super fresh, bit of So2 at opening but blows off after air. Still a long life ahead, Weygandt import.
