  Agree with previous notes though the medium acidity is disappointing, especially given the sweetness. Maybe try again in 5 years.

  Bright sweet cherries plus amaretto on the nose and palate. Sweet but not cloying — the light texture and lack of weight of a sweet Riesling but more intense flavor. Would probably get very interesting and complex with some age but it’s fully open now and showing exuberant freshness.

  An outstanding Chenin that brings out the best of its terroir. Medium acidity, clear medium gold color. On the nose pear, white and yellow flowers, on the palate Honey, apple orchard, quince, some residual sugar here but enough to be a dessert wine. 95+ fantastic

  The sweeter première trie level is made from a berry-by-berry selection of the very ripest (often botrytis-affected) grapes.
  The balance is mouth-watering, racy, transparent wines represent some of the greatest whites of France. The première trie wines can also work with desserts - but nothing too sweet (they are better with cheeses).
  Intensely yellow and highly concentrated and complex on the nose with candied lemon zest and chutney aromas and walnut notes. Sweet (really sweet!) yet refined and elegant on the palate, this is a full-bodied, rich and generous yet piquant and firmly structured, greatly tensioned and salty with pineapple flavors on the finely tannic and energetic, very sustainable finish.
