Very good Loire white; on the 'sumptuous' side for the Old World, with some oak/vanilla/butter/malolactic flavor. Reminded me a bit of a premium US Chardonnay. A tinge of aftertaste bitterness when opened, but that disappeared as bottle aired out.

Light gold color. Spslit bottle over 3 hours. Very floral to start, quite perfumed carrying the lemon curd and peach, bright , very stoney, grapefruit. The palate is medium bodied, pretty, such nice acidity, lemon, grapefruit, peach, red apple, green herbs, a touch of tangerine, lime zest and stone. Very nice. 92+ to 93pts.

Very good, quite lean on the fruit, pomelo and pomelo pith, and a lovely pine nut (not toasted) note which carries through. Slightly bitter, but in a pleasant way. Drank over 5 days, remained yummy to the last day.

Started out very clean, precise, but very closed. Opened up after 20-30 min. to reveal lots of clean minerals, river rocks, lime and lime pith, slick, good concentration but with elegance. Loire Whites Party Teviot St.

Fresh and crispy with crushed rock, stone fruit, citrus, peach and grape fruit. Precise and lean palate.
