  10th of 12, opened 45 minutes, perfect cork and level, one of the better bottles (ie not corked or poxed), showing roundness and drive of top vintage, attractive flavours, minerality with nice touch of lemon curd, limied upside now, probably best to drink over next 2 years given high risk of flawed bottles with Sauzet.! F+ (18).

  While this bottle was delicious it opened very much as a 2000 rather than 2010 with advanced maturity rather than the premox of a previous bottle. The nose and palate showed plenty of yellow stone fruits, grapefruit, nuts and honey characters and a delicious layered palate that evolved favourably with air to reveal a lovely purity. There was plenty of grip and drive here but the overall impact is of a much older wine.

  9th of 12 CORKED............far too many indifferent, and NOT of merchantable quality, bottles with Sauzet, ie 2nd or 3rd corked bottle in this case with a couple of others flirting with POX. In any normal business this performance would and should lead to bankruptcy!!!!!

  8th of 12, opened 30 minutes, perfect cork and level, on form bottle with wonderful flavour profile with super underlying concentration befitting Combettes and fine line and length, still youthful, much upside, 15+ years. F+ (18).......usual pox warnings for Sauzet!!!
