  Un nez de fruits de la passion et citron. Concentré et encore assez tendu, plutôt fermé.
  
  Après 90 minutes il s’ouvre et se révèle dense et très salin, droit, caillouteux. Encore jeune et énergique avec un style sérieux et profond. Austère mais impressionnant, je crois qu’il sera meilleur dans 3-5 ans. 92+ pts

  Superb stuff. Starts a little on the riper side on the subdued bouquet, though more pear than tropical, with an unctuous oily note. Hints of flint and lime zest help keep it real. The palate is where the action is — mouth-filling, layered, deep, unctuous but steely and zesty like pomelo or even white grapefruit with a very long, tangy, mineral-infused finish. Almost leaves the impression of a dry Riesling. There are just the slightest hints of its age creeping in — a little caraway, some gingery notes - but these serve to add nuance and complexity. At point, so good. 93-94 pts (95+ pt palate).

  A little old on the nose. And fine on the palate, maybe could use a bit more energy, but hey, here it is. Late harvest apparently.

  Sur sa fin de vie, le vin aperdu son acidité, il est devenu perlant et il n'a plus la profondeur qu'il avait plus jeune,.

  la Gloire de la Loire...
  
  immensely complex nose, but a little awkward, somewhat lactic and nutty, lots of herbal and vegetal tones, pear and apple cider, briny citrus... but it pales in comparison to Francois Cotat La Grand Cote 2010, and I didn't love it. Rich and full on the palate, plenty of Sancerre typicity and immense depth of character, but just a little weird... it kept improving in the glass, however... why do I quibble, this is really interesting stuff...
