Full, rounded, quite rich and exotic, old school style. drinking at peak I would think, shame about the 2 bottles that were poxed before getting a good one

Pulled the cork a couple of hours before serving and the nose leapt from the bottle straight away. There’s ripe orchard fruits, peach and even some mango with a line of citrus acidity.there’s some weight to this wine in the mouth, then comes some more savoury notes, cashew nut, the finish is very long. An excellent bottle of this wine, mature but will keep

This is a wine experience! Beautiful wine, all in balance, a mix of great wines (a bit of vintage champagne, sauternes, and more), there's power, elegance, balance. Love it. 2 hrs of air, this showed best when a little warmer. Nice phase of maturity and will last longer. Massive difference with other decent 1er cru of same age, most of which were past peak and not that good

Butterscotch to the fore but not caramelised. Good freshness. Long complex, drink up.
