March 16, 2024 - Nose of apricots, flat white peaches, elderflower, whip cream, gooseberry, shaved almonds, carambar and dusty sucre vanillé. Cantaloupe and chamomile 1h in.
Palate is nicely textured and length is decent. Minerality comes through true and defined.
If tested blind, would have guessed meursault or hidden bench felseck chard. Unlike any sauv. blanc I’ve ever had. For ref. 68/32 sauv to sémillon. Paired nicely with a loaded brioche bun croque monsieur.

March 1, 2024 - Mittleres Gelb. Offene Nase, Kamillenblüten, Apfel, ein Hauch Vanille. Der Gaumen ist zugänglich, rund, top Säure, knackige Frucht, das Holz kaum wahrnehmbar, lebhaft und druckvoll, ohne Schwerfälligkeit. Langer, frischer Abgang. Ab sofort bis 2030. (Januar 2024)

June 20, 2022 - (88-90 vvPunkte) Mittleres Gelb. Offene Nase, Röstnoten, reifer Apfel, Vanille. Im Gaumen weich, rund, reife Frucht, feine Säure, das Holz ist gut verpackt, die Harmonie stimmt. Kein Ausbund an Finesse, jedoch mit guter Länge. (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022. Syndicat Viticole de Pessac-Léognan) vvWine.ch

May 20, 2022 - Lemon rind, yellow tropical fruits, mango, tangerine, and honeysuckle get your attention on the nose, while the fresh, bright, lemons, green apples and touches of orange seal the deal on the, bright, crisp palate. Drink from 2023-2030. 92-92
