Absolutely outstanding and typical Vin Jaune. Draw- gold in colour. Very oxidative, but incredibly bright acids bring intense focus to this wine.beautifully long finish, turmeric and cumin notes intermingle with saline oyster shell notes, but with the size of a white table wine. As always, a perfect match with Comte cheese. Bought on sale, and as a result this is great value in a singular wine. Does what one expects of excellent Vin Jaune. No hurry at all.

Just a little blue cheese on the nose, then nutty notes Super fresh and vibrant on the palate, a lovely tang here, green apples perhaps, then layers of nuts. Enormous fun, drinking really well now

Lovely at the end of an evening; a little sherry, but with plenty of acid and the merest hint of curry, I believe.

Salty, nutts, yellow apples, well structured and balanced, but as always with rolet, some moldy aroma that rubbs me the wrong way. 87p
