A more elegant and notably more floral-suffused nose is composed by notes of ripe pear, apple, citrus confit and crushed anise. The rich, generously proportioned and sleeker, though not denser, middle weight flavors do flash more evident minerality on the seductive yet powerful finish. This beautifully well-balanced effort should easily repay up to a decade of keeping. Recommended. Drink: 2031+. Outstanding. Top value. Score - 91.
