No formal notes ….Medium straw colour . Quite intense slightly smoky lemon peel , flinty , oyster shell nose . On the palate quite surprising intensity and excellent length , refreshing acidity . Nice yellow fruits and roundness allied to great freshness . Drinking surprisingly well , though better in 5-10 years and should hold for a further 5-10. — 12 days ago
Settled and gorgeous. Pretty with soft citrus, wet rock, salinity, pear, hints of lychee. Resolved, balanced and delicious. — 9 days ago
06 vintage. Still tight but opens up beautifully. — 21 days ago
Roumier particularly crushed ‘17. Even the Bussiere which is a bottling that IMO takes forever to be drinkable opens up so quick in the decanter gaining most notably in density and texture after a somewhat thin first pour. It’s bright, vibrant and pure with layers of black and blue fruit, dark cocoa, spices and earthy soil tones. The palate is seamlessly balanced, deep and expansive with fine grained tannins and a long, lifted and elegant finale. A fantastic vintage for this bottling that is already in a great spot but with of course, its best years ahead. — 9 days ago
Medium gold, heavy like oil in the glass. Complex nose with notes of citrus, stones, marzipan and a little honey. A hint of oxidation is evident, but it's part of the complexity this bottle offers tonight. In the mouth this has massive power, yet is silky and coats the palate. — 15 days ago

Light gold, heavy in the glass. High pitched nose. Notes of green apples, sweet kiwi fruit, citrus, lime blossoms. Although the nose is expressive, this is closed and tight in the mouth (despite being open for 6 hours we're told). At first I had this rated as being a bit behind the 96 Clos and Blanchot next to it, but over the evening this powered up and in the end was equal to its siblings. Has many years of enjoyment in front of it. — 15 days ago
