Estate tasting with Mme Magnin, Just for the nose, the mark is a good 91... You know some RS will be in there as soon as you smell it, grilled sesame, then white truffle, raspberry, mango, passion fruit, that is a complex nose, going every directions... Palate is balanced with still a nice acid that holds it well, and a big wine with volume in mid palate... Very nice, but the sweetness is not always my jam... though I understand the higher marks by other tasters. BTW, it is 11 gr RS

Sweet smelling bouquet of acacia and orange blossom honey, honeysuckle, and dried tropical fruits, pineapple and mango in particular, all of which suggest the wine contains RS. The palate reveals a viscous, off-dry offering of expansive range and depth. Suave bordering on luxurious mouthfeel, inviting and lifted, complex finish of impressive length. Essentially a dry dessert wine and uniquely delicious! 92-93.

Rose gold. Powerful notes of passionfruit and quince lead to dried mango. Full bodied and highly textured. The wine is full of tropical fruits complemented with a subdued bitter finish. An expressive wine full of character and capable of standing up to roasted poultry or river fish in a rich white sauce.

Clearly aged, but what an incredible wine. Deep and layered, touch of botrytis.
