(from 40+ year old vines). A completely different aromatic profile is comprised by notes of petrol, crushed herbs, rosemary oil and poached pear. As one would reasonably expect, there is better volume to the caressing, round and rich middle weight flavors that possess acceptable vibrancy on the bitter lemon-inflected finish that is a bit short. I suspect that the recent bottling has upset the balance somewhat and my rating offers the benefit of the doubt that a year of bottle aging will allow this to better harmonize.
