    March 11, 2023 - Robe légèrement dorée. Riesling typique au nez avec le côté pétrole et cire. En bouche, aromes un peu moins présents. On retrouve du miel et des fruits tropicaux qui amènent une sensation de sucrosité et de rondeur. Vin complexe, original, mais pas assez sec à mon gout.

    July 8, 2021 - Tropical fruit, other mildly interesting notes on the nose that I'm not used to from riesling.

    Unfortunately, the palate, with a quick pop and pour, is straight white welches grape juice. Uncannily so. Immediate flavor recognition from everyone present.

    It balanced out a bit with some air, but I couldn't get past the initial impression.

    March 2, 2020 - Un beau riesling mais style un peu trop sucré pour moi.

    June 3, 2019 - Bon vin assez bien balancé. Offre une belle rondeur en bouche avec des saveurs de fruits exotiques assez prononcé (mais pas désagréable). Un élément différenciateur par rapport au riesling alsacien? Je ne crois pas que le niveau d'acidité soit assez important pour donner un potentiel de vieillissement.
