Gorgeous, totally clean, pale straw in the glass, medium bodied with some viscosity in the mouth and electric acidity. Lemon, bruised green apple, wet wool, stones, all the classic notes, could evolve

Good match for some, but not all, of our sushi dishes. Could use some air, and has a long life ahead. Try again in 2025-2030.

Excellent bottle. More elegant and harmonious than Domaine du Collier Samur 2013 this week. Plenty of time ahead.

Always serious. So utterly drinkable. Beautifully mineral driven but still boasts some chenin richness. This is grand cru type stuff!

At this stage all about steely mineral notes and sharp, persistent acid. Love it.

Beautiful wine. Honeydew melon, apple, apricots. Spicy, minerally. Lovey!

Gorgeous and thought-provoking, this single vineyard Chenin expresses on the nose almost like an aged Riesling -Orange marmalade, honeycomb, petrol, apricot skin, following through with similar notes on the palate accented by chamomile, unctuous texture, slicing acid, and a salty tang, ending with a long lip-smacking finish. Somewhere along a petit manseng and aged Riesling character, beautiful to sip on and with tilefish in a honey orange jus
