May 21, 2022 - Lovely wine, though didn't really match the food (fish). Needs something richer to stand up to it... but a lovely wine all the same, so much interest and complexity.

November 24, 2021 - Still a bit young, but a beautiful bottle nonetheless. All stone fruit and pear skin and honey without the sweetness. There’s a bit of phenolic bitterness/saltiness that frames the finish. Excellent with sweetbreads. Lovely bottle.

March 14, 2020 - Delicious paired with spaghetti with bottarga. Perfectly balanced right now.

September 6, 2018 - This needs not to be served too cold & would benefit from a decant. Sweet corn yellow; nutty, glue, sleek; tangy cut, spiky acidity, plenty of depth & concentration; snarky bitter edge undermines the extended finish.

January 16, 2018 - Decanted an hour ahead of time. Mid straw in colour. Definitely still in its first flush - bright and vivid with slightly exotic notes of white flower, pear, peach and pineapple - rich without apparent acidity but not lacking freshness at all (very evidently Marsanne). I will keep my other bottle for 5+ years. ****
