June 20, 2023 - A fresh and vibrant bottle with excellent concentration for a village wine. Nicely bright and integrated with mineral nuances. At peak.

December 29, 2022 - Colour was a worrying gold. Palate was initially ok but quickly began to oxidise.

September 7, 2020 - Chalk, mineral stone, smoke, medium+ acidity. Butter on the palate. A very good village wine. Should drink up, at its peak.

June 8, 2020 - Glacial wine, not even close to being mature yet - has more power than grace but there is nice white flower and mineral notes that will emerge with time. This bottle did not have a hint of POX, thankfully.
