More austere minerality than fruit. Pronounced density / concentration of flavor without adding weight.

now this was FANTASTIC... i'm 90% a burg guy (for whites) but this is special... Tiff said "great acidity" and that was the case on the pnp, then after about 2-3 hours in the decanter this developed some richness and maybe sweet (?) citrus fruit to balance... just packed a punch with various (and confusing) flavors... but LOVED it... bought 6 btls of 2019 this AM... hope those are just as good, with time at least

Pronounced nose intensity with nose of tropical fruits, mineral, flora. High acidity and long finish.

Beautiful nose of fresh orchard fruit, citrus, fresh apricot? Full glycerin mouthfeel, paired beautifully with raw tuna. Balanced acidity to stand up to fats/cream. Delicious alone and with food. Drinking well now but think it could age longer (3-5yrs?)

Nose: herbal, vegetal, mushroom, honey, green pepper, peach,
Notes: this is an interesting experience trying the so called cult Sauvignon Blanc from the lengendary maker. 2004 is still made by Didier before his passing. Nevetheless the wine is bit tired and seems to be over its peak already. This was not enjoyable and I still remain skeptical on the potential of this grape variety.
Drink: too old.

French >$150 theme: Obviously a Sauvignon Blanc with tropical gooseberry and grapefruit notes. Superb verve and freshness; when I had this the last time I was 10 years off for the vintage and so it proved again here. Technically very impressive with the weight and purity of fruit, but didn’t quite move me.

Servert blindt; bordet landet på «Loire, ca 2008», noe som må sies å være anstendig. Utrolig elegant i munnen, flytende glass, hvit frukt med hint av urter, nesle og gule toner. Ørlitegrann oksidativ. Nydelig. Såvidt jeg kan se siste fulle årgangen til Didier før han døde.

I wanted to dislike this, but it was wonderful.

The oak and smoke dances with cheese and tropics. Not clear who is leading. Wonderful ripe cantaloupe and even slightly bubblegum in the palate. Continued to evolve until the last drop dropped.

In a beautiful spot.

At Vantre in Paris. Elegant loire white. Very well balanced acid and structure. Lovely but not as expressive as expected (over the course of 2 hours, not decanted). Curious to revisit in 5 years

一款甜度和酸度都不会太高的甜酒
有一点稀释的cherry的感觉
很强的水仙菠萝香气,再配着菠萝一起喝,真是绝绝子
此外还有些酸杏的香气

喝起来有那种吃一口苹果皮后包裹舌头的感觉,回味十分之酒

Dinner with DBY (Imperial Treasure Great World City): Pronounced oxidative nose, slight oily, touch grassy, good depth, fresh on the palate. Not exactly sure how to describe this but not a fan.

Nearly 2 years since my last bottle. This really benefited from 90 plus min in the glass and then it was like licking river rock. All mineral, some pear and a hint of green apple. This is a very well balanced wine that is no doubt in its prime but also no rush to drink these. I’m guessing these still have 3-5 years left on them with ease.

Tight to start, very slowly opening up. Lemon zest, pineapple, hint of jalapeños (never have had this note before in Loire). This is especially pleasant, showing a balanced acidity, generally complex fruit and vegetal notes — especially green. My first Silex ever. Very much looking forward to trying older vintages, and this one aging.

On the nose this merits a perfect score… such a beautiful expression of Sauv Blanc. Crushed stones, gooseberry, sea salt. Lovely salinit and acidity. Long finish.This is PERFECT with oysters.

I agree with Soyhead’s June 2022 review on this wine. My bottle also seemed advanced considering the age. It was the biggest “label” on the table but certainly didn’t deliver the goods tonight. Floral on the nose but flabby on the palate. Slightly disappointing.

Shallow experience in which the grape and terroir weren't recognisable, was served blind, very poor QPR.

Opened in Courchevel. P&P and served over lunch.

This performed really well - perfect condition bottle stored in France from release. Creamy and not green at all, extremely supple on the palate and going down so nicely with a richness that balanced well against a strong acidic backbone. Almost reminded me of a beautiful Sauternes on the palate, even though this was completely dry. Wonderful wine and shows that patience will be rewarded with Dagueneau's wines.

At age 12 this is impressive. Crisp nose of cut grass, grapefruit and a little tropical note. Medium bodied with good cut and minerality. Impressive concentration for a SB with some length in the finish. This is probably at peak but can go another 5 or so years.

Helles Gelb. Die Nase ist anfangs verhalten, braucht Luft, etwas Dekantierzeit - nach 30 Minuten öffnet sich der Wein, ein Bilderbuch, reife, exotische Früchte, weisse Johannisbeeren, darunter viel Mineralik, darüber Honig, Akazienblüten, ein Gedicht. Im Gaumen straff, gradlinig, ungemin knackige Frucht, sensationelle Säure, hier ist alles an seinem Platz, der Wein zeigt Spannung, Dichte, Druck und bleibt dennoch federleicht. Langer, salziger Abgang mit exotischen Früchten und Salzzitrone im Retrofinale. Ein sehr grosser Wein. Jetzt (dekantieren) bis 2035+ geniessen.
