The nose is discreet but complex. You get a subtle whiff of white flowers and white peach. The palate is rich, powerful and layered. There’s some spearmint cream and all sorts of geological matter. It has great build and is super-long.

Deeeeelish! Was a bit apprehensive about the vintage, but my fears were proven to be misguided. Rich, intense, a serious wine. Powerful but also graceful with some nervosite. Great performance from a vineyard and vintage I wouldn't have expected.

Drier character. Fading citrus and apricot with underlying limestone notes. 89-90

A bit fruity then I thought it should be. Not as zippy minerally as I would have hoped

Seventh Annual White Truffle Dinner (Chez Weber - Chicago IL): Ripe fruit aromas, clearly showing more age than expected, certainly more than the 1997 Valmur in the next glass. Dense fruit, but rather simple overall.
