1985 and as fresh and vibrant as wines decades it's junior. Very pure, very focused.

Beyond The Valley of the Ultraflinty. If you taste this wine and still believe that terroir is a bit myth, you're fired.

Very nice aged chenin. Smoky, perfect acidity (lemony), very complex, good mouthfeel, super dry. Beautiful golden color.

Very cool, very old Chenin Blanc. I'm into weird old wines so for me it had a lot of exciting stuff going on. Clove, nutmeg, baking spices and old orange peel on the nose with a hint of petrol. Still kicking with enough acid to say "I'm still alive". All in all a really cool wine and it went perfectly with our tahini and quinoa bowls.

Ce 2010 est une vraie bombe.
Ce 🍷 est parfaitement équilibré et commence à apporter des belles notes de truffes blanches.
Un vrai coup de cœur...
