  René Engel: So consistent. Minty and tropical with electricity to match. Huge and delineated wine showing better than 05 on the side when opened but eventually peaked to the limit of the vintage, which is already a very very high ceiling. 95-96

  Rene Engel Dinner (Benoit Bistro, Manhattan): Very linear and pure. Acid very much alive in contrast to the 05 drank side by side. A vibrant wine in perfect balance.

  Yoghurt, green meadow grass, peach, tropical fruit, coconut, buttery, caramel, stony, oily, mouth-coating cotton candy. Best bottle yet, richly and classically Batard, so great, clean, resolved, forceful with heat. Complete tropical heaven. 95-96

  Electric yellow fruit, peach, pear, sweet anise, spice, meadowwood, salt and marshmallow. Lightly green in profile but satisfactorily electric, so much more to come with aging. Needs some acidity if one is being picky. 95

  Powerful nose with toasted aromas. I find it a little Coche side.
  Voluminous palate on an imposing substance. The juice is mineral on wet stones with a little fat and great tension. With time, very marked saline aromas will come. The wine has a huge presence in the mouth, complex and deep, it loosens completely.
  The finish tightens up a bit, with that salty side that will not leave the wine to finish on a length that I would have liked more in line with the mouth which was magnificent.
  
  It's great though, just that the lack of length prevents him from leveling up.
