Had this a couple of years ago, was kind of tired then, now this is a young and energetic batard. Fresh nose, citrus, butter, sweets, taste with tension and minerality.

Leiden tasting: last one before the holidays: Golden yellow colour. Buttery nose, some flowers, not much fruit. Taste was first a bit dissapointing, wine seemed tired and plumb due to lack of acidity, however after 20 minutes in the glass it opened and showed complexity, acidity and minerality.

Simply superb. Fat, lush big wine. On the nose it reminded us of meursalt, with battery notes. Lots of minerality too. This is a gem of a wine and even at this young age simply superb. 94-95

White burgundy & Barolo/Barberesco (La Trompette, London): Blind. Green-tinged mid straw. Saline nose. Quite viscous on the attack but very long mineral line. Richer. A touch of pineapple. Good weight but posture with it. ****
