March 21, 2023 - The key to sweet wines is the balance between its luscious sweet fruits and acidity, Here, you find all that and more. With a core of roasted apricots, honeysuckle, spice, candied tangerines, mangos, honey and vanilla that coat your palate, it is the attention-grabbing, racy quality of the fruits, due to all of its fresh acidities that makes this an effortless, treat to taste. Drink from 2023-2055.

November 8, 2022 - Arvi Bordeaux 2020 Arrivage (Dolder Grand, Zurich): Bordeaux 2020 Arrivage tasting. Key observations: 1/ Tannins were generally soft and well-integrated, but still left room for structure, 2/ fruit generally ripe and well-defined, no over-extraction, 3/ all appellation were showing great, but if I had to pick out then it would be Paulliac, 4/ top wines were Petit Village (completely unexpected, 97) and Lynch Bages (96).
Tasting note:
An compelling nose with dried and candid fruit but also more fresh elements, a herbal touch and chamomile. While this was a nice juxtaposition to the more candid profile of Suduiraut, the palate was similarly viscous with lots of honey aroma.
