F-king brilliant on a 'less is more' scale - darker fruit than most SC wines but clear, clean and persistent - yummy to boot - great stuff Thierry!

Loving this. So sleek and polished yet so animal as well. Supernal balance.

Pretty cool wine. Could use a bit more body but wonderful light aromatic notes

Концентрированно, при этом чисто, минерально, ликерная слива, теплица, пепел.

2011. Not your fathers green cab franc. Really meaty with a hint of licorice. A great change of pace wine.
