December 1, 2017 - Still open for drinking. It hasn’t yet done the typical Cdp thing of closing up and seemingly oxidising for a few years.
A very elegant, mineral driven wine. Great quality and value. If Ramonet made a Cdp.....1 person found this helpful Comment -

May 5, 2016 - Another great bottle. Showing more minerality than before. No sign of the dreaded White CDP shut down. Wish I'd bought more

February 20, 2015 - Hommage A Jacques Perrin dinner - 89, 90, 00 and 10, also 02 Salon, 02 Carillon BBM, 89 Constance and etc. (The Grill Room at Capella Hotel Georgetown): Quite shy initially, lanoline and subtle white fruits. With air, honey, lanoline, white peach, almond paste, honeysuckle and lime stone which reminded me a great Saumur Champigny blanc rather than a CDP blanc. Very precise palate impression, mineral, saline, good acidity and lovely clean finish. Very clean, subtle and fresh wine. Very unique and interesting. Although two years apart, my impression closely mirrors sjwshiraz. this is a polar opposite to the 10 Beaucastel VV Blanc served next.
