No big change since my last note. Light golden colour. Superbly fresh, racy nose, perfect acidity on the palate. Peach and grapefruit aromas with hints of white flowers. Not complex but showing excellent purity. This is drinking at peak. A crisp, elegant style that stands firm.

Drank first time 2 years ago; has not evolved that much since then. Colour is light golden. Nose is open, floral and fruity, with clear-cut tones of peach, grapefruit, cut grass, and elegantly integrated oak. On the palate, delicious cocktail of peach and citrus, very fresh. Is this a "mini-Carbonnieux"? I can't tell exactly; it may not have the concentration nor the length of a great wine, but it has elegance and a good degree of aromatic precision. Drinking well now.

PnP. Brassy yellow. Lemon curd beeswax and freshly cut grass on the nose. Light weight with a bit of viscosity from the semillon. Lemon curd white grapefruit and lime peel with a herbal note on the finish. Nice example of an aged white. Good complexity and value.

A dry wine with nice bouquet. Very drinkable at the moment. OK acidity.
