Superlative wine. Just love this producer. A bit more rocky and linear than some other cuvées. Yellow plum and peach skin nose. Fabulous extract that is still very drinkable - sometimes these wines can be almost too much (not really but trying to make a point). Perfect to drink right now. (94)

Nose has strong hints of citrus oil, bergamot, crushed gravel. Drinking yields notes of lemon zest, melon, honey, and wet stone. Great sweet fruit intro transitions smoothly to an acidic sharp refreshing finish. Exceptional.

Chamomile, citrus, herb, before a decidedly mineral finish. With more air, it leads to more peachy stone fruits. Still tightly wound, but hard to deny at this point with great tension between textural oily richness and crystalline minerality that doesn't quite on the finish. Most excellent.
93+. I'd hold for at least another 2-3 years as this may well unfurl further with a little bottle age.

Apricot and orange zest nose. I taste apricot, orange pith, and the wine finishes with something herbal - almost medicinal. Looong finish. Very nice.

Floral and dusty tropical fruit up front, tapering off quickly into an elongated finish on minerality. Yum!
