December 24, 2021 - Une belle tension. Complexité … longueur impressionnante Dominante beurrée , coing, agrumes, un vin de toute beauté ! Digne de son nom et de sa noble origine…

A touch oxidised style for me? -

September 12, 2020 - Dinner hosted by Ashley and Bill...playing the part of somm for the evening, wine from my cellar (Chez Schofiled - Princeton, NJ): Second wine of the evening, with cheeses and meats. From a magnum, chilled. slow oxed for about 45 minutes prior to drinking.
Medium gold/brass color. Interesting nose of pears, white peach, wax, floral notes...PC73s note has "cream soda", which I think captures one of the descriptors...:) Palate of candied citrus, peach, pineapple(?). Medium weight and finish.
Based on some older notes, I am guessing this has put on some weight and added depth in time. Interesting wine to share with the group - most had not had a white Bdx before. Solid pairing with the cheeses -

December 9, 2018 - Lovely nose; a winning mix of the honeysuckle, green melon Sauvignon blanc and the honeyed, cantaloupe Semillon. Smelled like more SB than Semillon but it's actually the reverse - around 3/4 Semillon. Less compelling on the palate, thus the score, but frankly for a second wine this is a success.
