I really liked the nose, which reminded me of the mineral bottle aged Chardonnay from Mikrovin MIkulov. Taste is amazingly refreshing and zesty considering the vintage. Very nicely drinkable. We had it with rabbit and it went very well;-). For all tastings of this vintage refer here, where you can finf the pictures in May 2013 tastings.
