Still a very nice wine with a good balance and a great bouquet. On the nose vanilla, some tropical fruits and grilled lemon. It could have been a California Chardonnay. On the palate medium acidity and more of the grilled lemon.

Well I thought this was a stunner. Takes about five hours to really get in gear and flesh out so I guess wait a year before realyl diving in deep. But in those first five hours give a beautiful amount of structure and clarity, and then once it starts to bulk up in fruit that works for me too. Its a great bargain.

Popped, breathed two hours, poured, followed over next 20 minutes. Similar, but a hair sweeter than the Roche and also a tiny bit less intense, complete, elegant and persistent. Still, this is excellent and rather tasty.

light golden in color. green apple, citrus, mineral, oak on the nose. lime peel, minerals, lemon, oak, vanilla, light toast on the palate. a bit of high alcohol on the finish.

More peachy and mineral than the En France.
