The nose reveals small dusty notes, notes of orange peel and slight notes of candied fruit in the background. The palate is fruity, aerial, relatively powerful, mineral and slightly less concentrated than on the 2008 vintage, but still well balanced. In the mouth it expresses small notes of honey, citrus, candied orange peel, mirabelle plum and quince associated with a touch of peach, almond and slight toasted notes on the finish. Good length.
