This wine was absolutely fabulous. Color shows almost no evolution. Still young outlook. In the norse very fine flavours of lychee, peach, very elegant, tasted still very young, acidity still present, very distinguished and than there is ‘la grande finale’. One of the best Batard I ever drank.

Pnp, light straw yellow, creamy nose with peach (exactly the same as the Peach flavored Tempo tissue paper in my washroom), hint of minerals, white flowers and lemon. More acidity and mineral on palate, sweet fruits emerged after initial sap of bitterness, very slight hint of aging at the long finish. Not a blossom bomb but rather a more mineral biased one full of tension.

beautiful now. good balance between power and acidity. At the opening, I detected tiny oxydative notes on the nose that I could not detect after a bit of air.
Considering the vintage, not sure this wine should be kept too long.
