2015 base. Classic Bereche notes of green apples, but I didn't enjoy this as much as the other bottlings that I have tried. Possibly shut down as this was rather unyielding and the dominating flavour I had was straw.

First time having Corsican wine and was very impressed by this. 100% Vermentino, good weight of fruit but still remaining fresh, very Chardonnay-like actually.

I had to double check that I brought the correct bottle, this showed like a Riesling instead of a Chenin. Some petrol on the nose, very overt tropical fruit but still had a good backbone of acidity. Some hints of botrytis. Good, but confusing. Not sure if this is worth the ridiculous secondary market price.

Made in a natural, glou-glou style with no structure that I am not a big fan of. Some sweet red fruits.

Even better than the bottle last year. Think we went to Italy on this one immediately, some earthiness and sweet red fruit. Excellent acidity and showed fresher than the bottle last year.

Bordeaux-like on opening with strong cassis notes but put on Syrah characteristics with time. Nice juxtaposition between the savoury elements of Syrah and the sweetness of fruit from the new world, very serious wine that I enjoyed but lacked the x-factor of the Jim Barry last month.

Very green on both the nose and palate, dissipated slightly on the palate over time to give a well-integrated wine with impeccable balance underneath. Very good quality but I could not get past the herbaceous quality that I don't mind usually. No other notes point to this though so possibly a flawed bottle?

Good, but not as stunning as the 1985 I had a couple years ago. Classic Sauternes notes of honey, apricot, some orange peel, but that was my problem as it does not transcend a typical Sauternes.

From 375ml, leaky cork. Drinking very nicely at plateau, mature fruit is receding to give a calm and reassuring presence. Fantastic length.
