Light hay in color, lovely nose, though more crushed fruit than sea or beach. Preuses all the way, meaning more voluotuous, lush, less sea and mineral, though there are traces of both, along with a a touch of lush fruit on the finish, and some nice umami salinity. Delicious now, but I question if there is much room for improvement with more time in bottle. Feels like a peak wine, without a lot of upside potential .

Tasted sxs against the Fevre 12 Clos. The first thing that hit me was the nose - wonderful minerality, graphite, chalky notes. Took 30-45 min for the palate to reflect the nose. (Don't drink this one too cold.) Was delightful. The Clos is even more elegant of course but this one was a beauty.

Superb. Drinking beautifully. No sign of premix or decline.

This was a bit green and tart for me and I was less aware of the saline minerality I like in their other “clos”
