2 ans 1/2 depuis ma dernière bouteille… petite déception. Robe citron mûr, nez sur l’ananas rôti, la compote de pommes, un peu trop avancé cette fois. La bouche est plutôt construite sur les amers, peu de complexité. Manque de gras. Finale moyenne. Je n’ai jamais été convaincu par ce vin et n’en rachèterai pas.

Needed some air to blossom, after opening, the barrel notes (hazelnuts) were dominant. With aeration white orchard fruit, citrus (blood oranges) and a nice salinity took over. Pretty good. Ready for business, a short decant is helpful.

Golden color with very airy and cool nose. Good acidity level with orchid flower, stone and even some hazelnut. Better integrated with an hour or two of air. Went nicely with the scampi pasta and burrata cheese. This is excellent value.

Somewhat advanced gold color. Sound nose of hyacinth, cool citrus, apple core, flinty iron. Buoyant layers of soothing grapefruit, granny apple, chewy pliant steel, and hints of cream on the silky palate. Wiry acidity and tensile spine. Longer finish of lilting citrus fruit, crisp apple, and underlying mineral core. Color was not what I expected but otherwise the wine showed quite well.

White orchard fruit, citrus (blood oranges), some elevage notes which are well integrated. Very good showing, well accessible but with years ahead.
