bu en parallèle d'un Anclaie et Rouannière du même millésime. robe moyennement ambrée, brillante. nez complexe mais pas encore dominee par les aromes tertiaires. le terroir s'impose, il y a un peu plus de tout par rapport aux Rouannières. une bien belle bouteille.

robe brune-orangée une oxydation assez présente rend le nez pas nette. On retrouve les notes de miel, abricot et safran en second plan. la bouche confirme les défauts de cette bouteille. C'est assez agréable mais bien loin d'un Quart de Chaume de chez Claude Papin.

Mind blowingly good wine. Such energy and life on your palate. Apricot, toffee, and caramel, plenty of acidity and great balance. Definitely a presence of botrytis. Perhaps I got lucky compared to recent reviews, but I wish I could find more.

Another disappointment. Colour dark gold. Nose and palate very burnished, sweet and rich with less acidity and minerality than expected and rich toffee and hints of boiled cabbage, which betrays incipient oxidation, on the finish. Still drinkable but should not be performing like this. I guess that other bottles may be much better.
