Marking my last tasting flawed. As I know now, that bottle was definitely oxidized. This is showing beautifully. The nose is full of citrus and wet rocks, very mineral in nature. It has gained some weight on the palate but the acidity is still high which balances it out very well. Finish is not too long but dry and pleasant. Very good effort for an entry level regional bottle.

Deep gold in color. Lemon, honey, and some golden apple on the nose. Dry, not too much fruit left. Very tertiary and hints of oxidation. More advanced than I expected but at eight years old, it may be time to drink up.

Positively surprising. Very complex and long aftertaste!
I will buy more of this stuff with such excellent PQR!

This stuff rivals Roulot, Dauvissat and leaves Lafon behind. I seriously have to try it against Coche's next time. Unbelievable juice.
