Rich, dense, deeply colored and fruit-driven but not lacking for acidity and precision. Exotic golden apple, tea and honey flavors with orchard blossom aroma characteristics. Superb to drink now, but enough to zip to age several years.

Gorgeous purity and balance of acid/sugar interplay. Sl. redux upon opening; flint and salumi rind. Aired out to underripe peach, asian pear, citrus blossom, tea leaf, flint and honey. Leesy undertones of cheese rind throughout. A “riper” Jasnieres while maintaining plenty of delicacy

Major love. Smells like persimmon pudding, tastes like goddamn deliciousness.

Classic Loire Chenin aromatics in all dimensions. RS accentuates the honey & apricot character in an off dry style that creates interesting tension between fruit, acid and texture. The finish surprises with slightly bitter lemon pith, leaving a very phenolic impression of a wine that is otherwise very rich and opulent.

Structure, frame and even with 4 years of age is still structured enough to go the distance for another ten. Creamy mouth feel with discreet notes of honey and biscuit. Smashing.
