  January 24, 2010 - Nice floral element here and a good mixture of richness offset with a zingy acidity. This needs some time to bed in - there is still a slightly tarte element lingering in the background, but pretty decent and typical of the region. Just give it 1-2 years to bed in.

  August 4, 2009 - The structure of this white was reminiscent of a young red Samur-Champigny. Awesome! Very bright up front with luscious peach and melon. Short mid-palate of pure granite moves into a pretty harsh "clamp down" that feel like a lingual baptism. The tongue emerges with a the lingering Pastis 51/Ricard coating. Was glorious with scallops.

  March 10, 2009 - Similar to the previous bottle tasted, but a touch richer and more complex. Juicy, spicy fresh fruit. Excellent.

  January 14, 2009 - Floral/grassy nose. Bitter melon and stone fruit flavors, with nice supporting acidity and a moderately long finish. This has nice freshness and lift, and admirably avoids the weighty, petrol/diesel end of the white CDP style spectrum. Drink these young.
