Brought home from Paris back in December. Quite stinky and reductive upon opening - let this bottle breath for a while. I decanted and threw it in the fridge for an hour or so and it came out singing. Chenin-like in its ripping acidity and wooly apple/pear thing, the palate is more elegant than the nose. It was a great paring for a heavily seasoned lean wild salmon fillet.

Not really oxidative. Baked apples, then lovely acidity and a saline, yeasty finish. Day 2: richer more integrated minerality, with an almost champagne like mousse. Good stuff.

Zesty acidity that dances across the tongue. Poured with home-cooked Mac and cheese: perfection.

Nice full-flavored wine. Great balance. Not too sweet. It has a nice hearty richness to it.
