Amber in the glass. Gingerbread, marmalade, bruised pineapple. Delicious.

This is in a perfect spot right now. Excellent, sweet, candy - but with just enough freshness in place.

Académie des Cinquante 67th Annual Dinner: Rich rôti, firm bitters, rich golden colour, medium sweet, honey and vanilla, salty caramel, concentrated and vibrant but not elegant.

Complex bouquet with apricots, marzipan ad honey. Same on the palate, litchi and some bitterness as well. Fresh acidity and quite elegant style.

From coravin. Cotton candy, flowers on the nose. On the palate, unctuous white fruit, honeysuckle, hints of almond, creme brulee, and enough acidity to smooth out the finish. 91/92
