  July 12, 2020 - JSHP sums it v well. It is fantastic with food but it is not the stunner that justifies a £150+ price tag.

  May 7, 2020 - better than the previous bottle - nice batard - good body and precision with acidity - good length and somewhat oily mouthfeel - but still not the best

  January 31, 2020 - Nicely evolved - lacking a bit body and typical batard buttery boldness - good length - nice but not the best Batard experience

  September 20, 2019 - Another lost Friday afternoon gathering – 96 Dom, 08 Cristal and a Rudy blend (Blacksalt, Washington DC): Medium expressive nose displaying ripe yellow fruit, peach, apple, a hint of lemon curd, custard, strong cedar/oak, honey, spicy spices and limestone. Excellent concentration, packed ripe yellow fruit, steely, bright acidity, medium mineral and a medium to long ripe yellow fruit driven finish with spicy spices and limestone at the end. Very good showing.

  June 8, 2018 - Lunch at Spring Court (Spring Court, Singapore): A solid Batard, even if it was rather too early to drink at this point. This had a lovely nose of flinty, smoky mineral drifting through a core of ripe yellow fruited aromas, with just a kiss of sweet oak at the corners. Quite an evolved nose for a 2010 I thought. The palate was rather less warm and developed than the nose suggested though, showing tons of vibrant energy tingling through its veins, with a real muscular seam of juicy, lemony acidity running through otherwise rich, powerful yellow fruit flavours. The finish was very dry and structured with all that citrus acidity, revealing a nice bite of mineral under it all. A wine that needs a lot of time to come together yet, and will probably drink better in 6-8 years, but there is certainly quality here.
