    September 9, 2021 - Good depth, brioche, caramel, orange confit, fine length. This is real Sauternes.

    May 22, 2021 - 94 vvPunkte (80% Sémillon, 20% Sauvignon Blanc) Dunkles Goldgelb. Expressive Nase, viele Blüten, Pfirsich, Aprikose, würzige Noten, Stein, das ist tiefgründig und komplex, , ich weiss nicht warum, doch der Duft versetzt mich an die Mosel, natürlich, das ist kein Riesling, aber er wirkt so frisch wie ein Riesling. Im Gaumen ein Mund voll Wein, dabei nicht schwerfällig, hat Saftigkeit und auch hier wieder Druck und Frische, die Süsse und die Säure halten sich perfekt die Balance, ein wunderbarer Spannungsbogen ist das, und trotz all der Cremigkeit und Fülle schwingt der Wein federleicht nacht und endet auf eine zarte, dunkle Honignote. Das hat seit En Primeur massiv zugelegt, oder ich habe den Wein falsch eingeschätzt. Grandios... Jetzt bis 2050+ (April 2021)

    March 9, 2021 - Medium-bodied, sweet, pure, fresh, juicy pineapples, candied lemon, mango and roasted orange with a nice dollop of honey and apple jam slathered on top. This is a nice combination of sweetness meshed with lift.
