It is, quite simply put, magnificent. Every molecule feels as if it is vibrating with the intensity of its own beauty. It radiates a kind of honeyed gold energy, the glistening acidity tasting as if it has been dipped in golden honey and spun into a slipstream of spine-tingling tenacity. The flavours unfurl, almost, it seems, in slow motion. Guava, Forelle pear, a soft smudge of toffee, a fine craquelure of smoke. Torque rising through the wine as the finest of bubbles leave staccato in their wake. It's hard to capture a wine like this in words. You just know it when you taste it: it is complete. I didn't blink when I saw the price.
