April 8, 2024 - 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.

June 30, 2023 - What an eye-opening journey. Perhaps it was my first time having an aged Sauvignon Blanc in excellent condition. This was simply mind-blowing. After my last sip I was simply reminded of every time I had this varietal, what I thought, how it tasted, what I liked, what it could’ve been, and really gave me a new appreciation for this noble grape. What a captivating drinking experience. Complex, long, and beautiful. Evolving in the glass, the wine has captivating salinity, zest, flowers, and hints of parmesan. On the palate, excellent balance of tropical fruit, minerality, flint, truffles, and forest floor. Beautiful savoury notes. Velvety mouthfeel, complexity, excellent precision, and finesse. Although this is the first time having a Didier Dagueneau wine, it may also be the last. Simply glad that I was able to experience it. Perhaps, not the best wine I’ve ever had but one of the most memorable. Raising my glass to a true maestro RIP.
