  Pretty consistent with previous note. This may have gained a bit of weight and intensity over time but still beautifully balanced. Lovely wine!

  Super delicate wine. Gained with air and after 2 hours had the typical white fruit and nutty aromas of bitter almonds which characterize high class marsanne blends. Slightly waxy. Delicious and ready to go for another decade.

  Bright straw and floral on the nose. On the palate some bitter almonds and nutty flavors. All in all very primary and medium-bodied. Delicious, perfectly balanced wine which I'd personally cellar at least three to five more years to enhace the oily and waxy texture of it. 93+

  Final bottle. Rich and textural with noticeable bitters. Gastronomic. Honeysuckle, rocks.

  Fifth bottle from a half case purchased on release from the Dutch importer. I must admit, I wasn't really keen on this in its uncommunicative youth, with its baby fat and its oily texture. It is almost five years old now, and the aromatic expression on the nose has improved a lot, and so have the precision and definition on the palate. With its low acidity, I had no idea that it needed time, but it I did, and I am glad that I let it age a bit. Drink now - 2022.
