NAIRAC (BARSAC) 2007 750ML

This Barsac has supreme purity on the nose, but it is tightly coiled at the moment. Very fine definition with notes of honey, tangerine, quince juice and minerals. The palate is just gorgeous: a vibrant entry with very fine acidity, honey, barley sugar, apricot, white peach and a touch of mandarin. If I am to quibble, then perhaps it is not quite demonstrating the length I was hoping for, but this remains an excellent Nairac, an estate that is producing better wines than ever. Drink now-2040.
