Nothing to add to previous notes. I agree on the honeyed element, the explosive ripe quince and laser like acidity makes this quite a noticeable effort. One taster found it too much but I loved the balance of ripeness and acids. In a perfect place right now. God bless Jacky Blot! Re-buy if the price is right...

Really interesting, tasty, good-value wine. Almost rustic, with its bristly crab-apple vibe, with hints of flowers, quince and honey and plenty of enlivening acidity. Good concentration and a sense of minerality too. Went well with some slightly smelly soft cheese. Exciting stuff.

Honey colour, quite mature with lots of apple and honey aroma and also on the palate. Complex wine

As always very good, from 50-80 year old vines. Bruised apple, hay, honey, quince, beewax. High acidity, long finish
