July 4, 2016 - Looking for best Sauvignon blanc: From magnum. Lively, fruity, with high crunchy accidity. Also a bit of reduction in the beginning - some sauerkraut juice. Develops aromas of gooseberries and lovely creamy oaky vanilla. Milky soft on the palate. Bright and beautiful wine.

October 19, 2010 - Chez Christophe avec Arnaud.
Nez explosif, agrumes, citron et pamplemousse, avec un coté floral. Très belle bouche vive, fraiche et noble. Un superbe vin de grande classe, expression un peu moderne mais séduisante de Sancerre. 93 pts -

June 29, 2010 - An Afternoon with Alphonse Mellot (Sancerre): Almost the last wine in this marathon tasting, and what a wine it is! Explosive aromas of honey and truffle, carressing texture, good acidity, exquisite finish. Great wine if unlike anything else from the appellation.

January 2, 2009 - À Québec. Nez séduisant de poires blanches et de fleurs. Superbe équilibre, un vin à la fois riche et fin, doté d’une belle acidité. Je crois qu’il n’a pas encore atteint son sommet mais il donne beaucoup de plaisir.
