Stylistically in between Chablis and Riesling... Saline, flint, and mineral, yet with such a brilliant thrilling acidity. As it warms up there is an almost peachy, exotic ripeness. Excellent concentration and just delicious. — 10 years ago

2007 Burgundies are just unbelievable now and this stands out for its transparency and complexity. Deep dusty cherry aromas with some earthy stems and minerality. But what stands out about Grivot's 07's is the very fresh, bright, accessible acidity. — 10 years ago

Biodynamic, natural Cabernet Franc aged in clay amphora with no sulphites. Pure, transparent expression of the varietal. The green pepper and herbs integrate slowly. Great black currant and plums with minerality. Only 12%! — 10 years ago

This Fino was insane with a variety of kimchi. Bone dry, unctuous, very aromatic right away. Smoked hazelnuts, green olives, minerals, and yeast on the nose. Funky, weird, and pure... (La Bota Fino 35) — 10 years ago

Incredible. Sunshine in a glass with blood oranges, minerals, violets, and herbs. Bright accessible fruit that got better over an hour or two. — 10 years ago

8.3

Slightly oxidised, nutty aroma. Amazingly still has fruit. It's remarkably young on the palate. Light coloured, very good acidity left. But maybe packed with added sulphur? Head hurts right away. — 10 years ago

Lovely orange wine - clean and citrusy. Felt that it was just a tiny bit on the flabby side. Could use some acidity. But excellent with food. — 10 years ago
