January 21, 2020 - Delicious. Sweet red berries, mainly redcurrant and cranberry, great elegance and style - needs drinking but really enjoyable.

April 9, 2019 - Mild, soft, juicy, a bit dirty, same lemons as in younger vintages, high acidity. Overall well balanced and lovely, the rusticity plays well here.

April 9, 2019 - Fruity and juicy with a taste of wild rose syrup. Flowing, open, fresh, giving, but not overly so. There's interesting aromatics of popcorn and sweat as well as some patee. Burgundian, lean but tasty.

August 16, 2016 - 1.5 hr decant. very lush and rich for Loire CF, bigger in all elements than Raffault, velvety on the palate, missing is the herbaceous elements, so noted for Loire CF. Lots of life left, tannins are resolved. Lovely stuff.
