This is such a different style, and again monumental. This wine just smelled long. I could just sense this before the first taste. There was a crispness on the nose, sharply of tart apple, baked breads, and hints of spice, and a slight hint of oxidativeness, that seemed just so right for this wine. The first swallow lead to a grin, it was full and rich, but so long and level, and incredibly balanced, and quite long. The fruit here was long and rich apple, pear, in a wet limestone bowl. Like the Salon, powerful and weightless, and perfect in its own way!
