First bottle in three years. This has opened a bit but is still young with years ahead. Rapier acidity, very mineral with flavors of lime, kumquat and white flowers. It has a dense seam of orange peel in the middle. This is rich and not at all lean. Just young. I am drinking it on its own but it would probably be better with food.

Nez iodé, des notes de lime. Un vin jeune qui n’a pas encore atteint sa maturité. Très sec et minéral, un style austère, avec une finale crayeuse et saline, longue mais encore un peu dure. Très typé Monts Damnés, on suce les cailloux, mais il est un peu janséniste en l’état. Une bonne complexité commence à émerger après deux heures. Beau potentiel, à revoir dans 3-5 ans. 91+ pts

Not sure about this particular bottle. I think it's just a dud. Thought maybe it was just odd on opening, but never really sung. Overly aged and honeyed. Flat, and flawed. Will try another soonish for peace of mind!

Sans note; Excellent, nez discret au départ, principalement sur des notes de citrons & de pierre concassé. Léger aspect de melon miel en arrière plan. Bouche droite, bien balancé, principalement sur des notes citronnées & impression de pierre mouillée forte. Splendide!

Very nice. Proving once again that F Cotât makes top notch wine. Great on the table with fish with lots of herbs and vegetables
