the nose here is rich and dense, with biscuit and mushroom elements. the big, layered palate displays apple and chalk notes, but is surprisingly soft, with a rather faint bead. there's an element of sweetness some tasters found tacky and perfumey for a wine of this stature. others, however, found it complex and exciting, with yeasty, toasty notes.
