January 2, 2015 - Premier dîner 2015: numérologie (Steak Frites Saint-Paul): Nez de bord de mer, citronnée.
Belle bouche saline, bien équilibrée, le vin n'est pas spectaculaire mais élégant et assez complexe, si peut-être moins profond et un peu plus léger que les millésimes récents, il me semble. Il aurait mérité que je m'y attarde sur quelques heures, mais les rouges arrivaient! 90-91 pts -

February 8, 2011 - Pale yellow-to-golden color. Floral nose w/ aromas of peach, apple and lemon - Acidity balanced, full and long on the palate. White peach and apple on the palate, w/ lemon and a very slight touch of parmesan on the long finish.
