Extreemly interesting and great wine - short bread fruit bread kind of nose, oily and powerful - massive mouthfeel and really super well done! Slightly oxidative style which I love and just an amazing mouthfeel - super good!

Extremely golden colour - quite beautiful. Lacks fireworks, but really delicious. Creamy, broad feel in the mouth - almost chewy. Hints of fruit but it's more like marmalade than a stone fruit or tropical flavour at this stage - and very dry despite a hint of honey. Rancio on the extremely long nutty finish.

Robe jaune d’or intensité moyenne, brillante, larmes lentes et grasses. Nez sur notes miellées, pierre à fusil, chèvrefeuille, kumquat, mangue. Bouche avec style oxydatif très net, très équilibré en bouche, aucune lourdeur et ce avec 15,5%, finale saline et notes de noix, salivant. Très belle longueur. Servi en magnum, très bel accord sur un velouté de châtaignes et noix de pétoncles.

Christmas Wimps (La Tromplette, Chiswick): A slight oxidative edge to the nose, but not out of kilter. Quite rich on the palate, big but with decent balancing acidity. Better with the food. **1/2.
