Nov 23rd, 2019500ml format; arrived today and drinking tonight. Smells like a lemon-vanilla scone just out of the oven. So yummy on the palate — perhaps a bit more of s tart tatin flavor profile, with a minerality that emerges on the very long finish. This is complex, delicious, and just demands drinking. Bravo!

May 29th, 2023Really excellent. Pale yellow. Nose of stone and lemon with floral overtones. Apple, yellow and white fruit. Good acid and mineral structure. Long finish. The oak is not intrusive. ABV12.6 so sprightly. PM or Chablis at PC level or above.
