Such an intelligent wine that keeps you thinking while enjoying every sip of it. Deep lemon color. Enchanting complex nuances of acacia flower, hay, lemon verbena, honey, grilled nuts, smoky flint, lime, spicy sweet vanilla, some toast. Medium bodied with sharp acidity, it offers magnificient depth and ultra precision. Lingering flavours combining terroir, fruits, oak and time. Salute to Didier Dagueneau! It can easily age and last for a decade+ (July 2021)

Tightly wound, with a lot in reserve, this has a piercing minerality that leads the way for floral, lemon verbena, lime, salted butter and thyme notes. Very long on the finish and very precise. (JM) (9/2007)
