  deep golden color, herbs and lemon soapy aromas arise from the glass, sturdy acidity, nuts, lemon zest and wax nuances cover the palate with a blanket of complexity, the finish holds on for a while, this is a great balance between complex flavor and fresh, refreshing qualities, I believe there is still life ahead as well

  Yum. Surprisingly creamy, nutty notes. Perfect with alpine style cheeses. Not as long and deep as previous bottles.

  nez oxydatif : noix fraîche mais aussi du citron confit et de la pomme chaude. Bouche au volume moyen, une acidité tient le vin tout au long de la dégustation, il n'a ni le volume ni le fruit du 2005, mais possède davantage d'acidité (dans mon souvenir).

  The herbiness of the Savagnin shows up on the nose with a sharp hint of spearmint late in the game. Strong notes of almonds and some peanut with a presence of old wood. Sharpness tartness on the back end with ample acidity but the fruit still seems to wallow on the palate. I suppose that might be the vintage. This has a hard time coming into focus for me. I like it for its complexities but hope to sample other vintages from this producer.
