Medium-pale lemon-yellow. The nose is reasonably wide with a small, tight, core of citrus fruit. In the mouth your first impression is of a lively wine, of (once again) citrus inflected fruit againt good acidity and nice minerality. There’s a fine burst of intensity late in the mid-palate that flows into the finish. Today, at least with an extra layer of ripeness, this is far superior to the 2001, though it’s certainly not the ripest of 02’s.

Medium yellow. The nose mixes sweet citrus notes with seashells. Understated, some concentration of agrumes-style fruit, nice acidity and medium length. Slowly mouth-watering. Clean and interesting. A good value wine.
