PnP. Medium light gold. Nose of citrus (lemon/lime) oyster shell, Lovely mouthfeel with a linear presentation of the fruit and a not overwhelming acid kick on the finish which also displays a lovely herbal (sage?) component. This feels less developed than a 16 Bougros de Boquerots from a few month ago. No signs of premox and will keep my last bottle til age 15 or so.

Pale yellow. Prominent aromas of Meyer lemon, tangerine, oyster shell, limestone, sourdough bread. Nice attack of fruit on the front of the palate, crisp acids (medium plus), energetic mouth feel, linear profile down the middle of the palate, low to medium alcohol (13%), lovely lemon zest and bitter herbal aromatics on the back, very long finish. Rich but austere.

Leo's btl at his & Jimmy's Annual Oysterfest. There were 13 of us so I took a small pour. My WOTH with power, class, intensity & balance to support world class fruit. 94+

Medium body, greenish golden colour, 13% abv. Intense aroma of orchard fruits and flowering acacia. Creamy palate of peaches, apricots and pears following by almond, gentle acidity and lingering, mineral finish. Complex but elegant and well balanced wine, still very fresh. Food friendly, well pairing to soupe a l'oignon et au fromage. Open half hour ahead. Don’t cool it too much, serve 12ºC - 14ºC. Drink now and for the next 6/7 years, perhaps longer.

Pale yellow. Rich and complex aromas of Meyer lemon, pear, sea shell, sweet and hot spices, and hint of brioche. Smooth and medium to full body on the palate, good extract, medium to high acids, low to medium alcohol, very long finish. Rich and mellow, very different from the sharp brightness of a young Chablis.
