The wine needs a lot of air. At first it seemed ripe and petrol, but with air it became fresher, more crystalline and mineral with quince, pear and citrus, but also herbs and stone.

Oeil doré aux reflets verdatres Nez jeune et peu bavard, galet, verdure fraiche, citron et fleur coupé Beaucoup d’acidité à l’attaque, Toucher vif, on distingue clairement du souffre et le vin est peu expressif. On sens beaucoup de potentiel, à revoir dans 2-3 ans

Very interesting bottle. Nose started off quite shy, but opened up. Lots of acidity on the palate. Didn't moderate with time. Classic Chenin. Became more generous and fruit driven with time in the glass, but this is built to age. Lots of character. I liked this bottle.

Pale; crystalline, penetrating, precise; taut, racy, dry, good extract, well balanced, poised; powerful yet graceful finish. Plenty of time in hand.
