Bought this for New years '11, opened it for New Year Eve '12 instead. Full of flavour: buttery citrus (lime mostly), yeasty baked bread and a bit of astringent wood. Also had a slightly earthy funkiness to it. Though it has almost 50% pinot noir in the blend, it's chardonnay character seems to be at the fore. It's a vintage bottling but it also has some oak aged reserve wines added. Overall quite dense and deceptively powerful. Very good for the price.
