Notes | |||
"A warm, expressive landscape, at first perfectly square, fairly compact, then widening, taking up more and more space, finally becoming clearly sedimentary. Dominant warm colours, saturated and full of life (orange, blue, cocoa, fruit), communicating a warm, ripe, delicious citrus fruit. Extreme tension of the fabric, partly masking its notorious thickness under the lemony lustre, the twirling voluptuousness, the very soul of Jurassic limestone. Energy comes immediately, lively like an uppercut, compact and fruity. It takes off from the seat and sends it into an ascending orbit, ample and of great potential." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"This is very ripe and pretty concentrated too, but it has noble reserve, in spite of the ripe-apricot and overripe-pear aromas that pour from the glass. I love the way the wine becomes ever more elegant, the further it flows over the palate. The hint of sweetness is already beautifully integrated. Everything fits very neatly and this is just coming to its best. A co-fermented field-blend of varieties. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold." —James Suckling |
