  Une belle tension. Complexité … longueur impressionnante Dominante beurrée , coing, agrumes, un vin de toute beauté ! Digne de son nom et de sa noble origine…

  Interesting. Struggled to place the palate profile.
  A touch oxidised style for me?

  Very tasty straight from the bottle. Rich, full bodied, perfectly in balance.

  Dinner hosted by Ashley and Bill...playing the part of somm for the evening, wine from my cellar (Chez Schofiled - Princeton, NJ): Second wine of the evening, with cheeses and meats. From a magnum, chilled. slow oxed for about 45 minutes prior to drinking.
  
  Medium gold/brass color. Interesting nose of pears, white peach, wax, floral notes...PC73s note has "cream soda", which I think captures one of the descriptors...:) Palate of candied citrus, peach, pineapple(?). Medium weight and finish.
  
  Based on some older notes, I am guessing this has put on some weight and added depth in time. Interesting wine to share with the group - most had not had a white Bdx before. Solid pairing with the cheeses

  Lovely nose; a winning mix of the honeysuckle, green melon Sauvignon blanc and the honeyed, cantaloupe Semillon. Smelled like more SB than Semillon but it's actually the reverse - around 3/4 Semillon. Less compelling on the palate, thus the score, but frankly for a second wine this is a success.
