Regular dinner group (By EM @ Bottles): Drank from magnum. In the intense bouquet white and yellow fruits, smoke, nuts, toast, vanilla and gunpowder. Same impressions on the palate. Full bodied, good balance between acidity and sweetness, some herbs as well. Really beautiful.

(Grange de Peres Blanc) This definetly was the best vintage of this wine I have had by far. Little bit of oak comes through on the nose and palate, but for such a rich wine that has such a voluptious texture, there is nice acid and delineation. Quite pure actually. Clean and ripe with some nice minerality. As it warmed up the alcohol showed through. Nice stuff and I think this will be lovely in ten years as there is nice structure. I have also heard these do wonderfully with age.

Occasional dinner group: Magnums chosen by Kenny (@ Invincible in Antwerp, Belgium): Tropical fruits and beautifully integrated oak. Ripe yellow fruits, full bodied and yet elegant. Enormous length and still powerful. Beautiful and exceptional wine.

A first rate wine with nice tropical fruit, richness and balance. Still going strong after 10 years following the vintage.

Rich and voluptuous with a nice touch of oak. More like an excellent California chardonnay than a French white wine.
