Tried twice! From a warm vintage, medium lemon color with aromas of white fruits and wet stone aromas. On the palate flavors of ripe apple & peach, very complex, lively acidity. Long finish ending with mineral and sweet honey character, should age well, but great now! — 2 months ago

Very interesting. A teeny bit oxidative the first night, so I reserved judgment until tonight. Admittedly, I have little experience with this appellation’s wine. Nose on night 2 had raw honey, bruised pear, clover, and wet chalky soil. Any hint of oxidation gone. In the mouth, very full, with flavors of dark minerality and pear skin. Long and intense finish. — 4 years ago

No formal notes. Just stunning Chenin. So long no nimble. — 2 years ago

Such a musk! You could bottle this as a cologne and I’d buy it. Chestnut, fennel pollen, golden apple, dried pear, beeswax, white pepper, very subtle sherry-like notes. Amazing pairing with pork pate and with confit chicken wings. Becomes more honeyed with time in the glass/decanter. Old Chenin 😁 — 3 months ago
