Warmer golden colouring and still an active display of tiny streams of bubbles. Touch of smokiness visually from peering into the bottle prior to pouring.

Apricots / dried apricot, dense white floral toward honeysuckle with a topping of grated almonds on the nose.

Decent minerality in the palate. Subtle style, smoothed out much over acidity, complex layers of flavours. Yellow stoned fruits, toast / toasted nuttiness, soft expression of mushroom, heavy white rose petals and more. Decent length, growing nutty expression at close with sea breeze.

Unsure of storage on this bottle, tiny (cork) fragments at base of glass noted.
