Best bottle ever. Unreal tropical fruit on the nose and haunting balance and length with great freshness on the palate.

A great bottle but needs 5 years of age. Took 2 hours to really get going.

Stunning nose. Mineral, floral, fruit complexity, peach skin, peach pulp, apricot, herbal, palate is ripe and acid is very good but not great. It sets on the fruit. Big stone fruit skin on the finish. Very ethereal, very elegant. Stunning purity.

In an egg. Insanely complex nose, I can't believe how sick this nose is. Refined and deep beyond words. Outrageous complexity and purity. Long and deep, Vin de garde. Length and refinement. Selection of parcel (mini-parcel) from best slices of land of Filles and Fripons. Is this the best Savoie wine I've ever had?

Манго, абрикосы, желтые розы, луговые травы, зеленые фисташки. Средне-полное тело со средней кислотностью и чуть сушащим алкогольным финишем. Спело и экспрессивно, экзотично, при этом без чрезмерной яркости и экстрактивности. Старательно и с претензией на объём, но немного плоско, с вяловатой структурой и легким жаром.

No formal notes. But stunning. Amazing delicacy and fruit complexity. Texture like nothing else. Ethereal. Amazing fruit. Finish is epic. Doesn't get better for Roussanne.

Nose is psychotic floral. Like elite condrieu. Omg ridiculous. Like this extra thing going on I can’t explain.

Palate is elements tropical. Mineral. Crazy.

Super rich for a savior wine. It's Berlioz on the nose but rich on the palate. Bought from Fass selections.
