April 9, 2024 - Grønn og umoden hvit bordeaux med 65% sauvignon. Fremstår sauvignon-dominert på duft men har en utpreget «grønn tropisk» profil. Kiwi, ananas, stikkelsbær, nesle, ugress. Litt nypisket krem. Noe floraltoner. Dessverre umoden og tverr i munnen. Balanseres noe opp etter 2 dager åpning men er fortsatt ganske kantete. Litt i dyreste laget

March 30, 2024 - I have been fortunate to have experienced this wine for over 30 years with continued enjoyment. The mark of a good Chateau is producing consistently pleasing wines & this Chateau meets that goal exceptionally well. This wine opens with an impressive nose of white flowers w/soft nectarine aroma. Flavor of soft muted lemon peel, light apricots and soft peaches. Soft balanced lingering finish. A great compliment to Tomme Noire des Pyrenees cheese plate & Chicken al Limone.

March 9, 2024 - Honeysuckle, grapefruits, lemon, green apples, spice and white peaches come through with ease in the perfume. On the palate, the wine is zesty, citrusy, brisk and racy with ranges, pineapples, sea salt, and crushed stones that linger in the finish. Drink from 2024-2034.

March 4, 2024 - UGCB Amsterdam, walkaround tasting so just short notes.: Juicy and fresh acidity. Well dosed oak.
