2015 in 2018. Fresh plum boutique, quite complex. Smooth even mouthfeel, unexpectedly light for a C-du-P but not thin. Delightful. — 8 years ago
Extremely decent 😃- that's an understatement-, great value, probably a better choice than any Pape Clément or Clémentin... for sure! — 9 years ago
Robust and bold. Dark fruit, dark plum and ripe blackberry, cassis, oak. — a month ago
The 2019 second label blends 90% Sauvignon Blanc with 10% Sémillon, aged about 15 months in French oak barrels, foudres, concrete eggs, and stainless steel.
The vibrant nose bursts with peach, apricot, mandarin, and an exotic hint of tropical fruit over subtle dried herbs. Medium-bodied, the palate offers supple texture, bright citrus-driven acidity, and a lingering, elegant finish.
Among the finest Bordeaux Blancs I’ve tasted. — 2 months ago
What a treat this was! Not seen nearly enough in the wild. Again part of the SB luncheon and contributed by @Joe Lucca himself, thank you! A very solid blend that is richly textured creating a full mouth feel. Hint of the tropics and toasted marshmallows make this a must have. Excellent wine. — 6 years ago
It's the second wine and a 2010 to boot. What more do you need?! — 9 years ago

A full body with a ruby dark color. Drinking nicely, tanins are already soften, strong nose and an overwhelming palate with dark plums and matured dried fruits. — 15 days ago
