Tasting Notes
The nose seems very mature, the wine is golden, more so than one would expect from 2006. The nose has a touch of earthiness, of baked Emmenthal with a hint of white field mushroom. The palate also is evolved, showing much concentration, the mature flavours evoking duxelles. A candied lemon note highlights the earthiness and a lovely phenolic edge brings out the essential saltiness and rich umami notions of the long, intense finish.
