November 26, 2023 - Clear, pale golden color. Clean, medium+ intense, developing nose: Lots of herbs, depth, some dark mineral notes, lemon and citrus notes. Beautiful perfume that gets even better with air.
Dry, but with some amount of residual sugar (I would guess around 6+ gr/l). Medium acidity. On the palate you can feel the warm vintage with lots of ripe, yellow and white fruit, but also with a lovely mineral note. Good depth, clear flavors and precise. But also baroque, meaning not really fat or broad. This bottle should be drunk now, no potential. 91-92 -

July 16, 2023 - Consistent with previous notes - last bottle of this but well worth looking for in subsequent years.

February 6, 2023 - Gold. Apple, white flower and lemon bouquet. Real presence and heft on the palate - oak nuance, vibrant and mineral inflected. Deep lemon custard on grilled toast flavours. Long and balanced.
This is lovely. -

November 18, 2022 - PnP'ed. Whiffs of kerosene & smoke, then tropical fruits - peaches, lemons, grapefruits filled the senses. Deep, yet awash with "spring-water" freshness, cuts across the palate with almost laser-like focus. A great wine to go with fried Chinese food/meats...
