1986 vintage. At Au Fils du Zinc in Chablis - thank you Fabian for picking the best white wine experience of the year. This was a wine that Mr Raveneau didn't release because he thought there was too much oak and sulphur. Only recently did they realise they had a gem. Medium golden hue. Honeyed, white peach, lemon pieces, iodine and crushed rock minerality. Slight bovril note and sea shell with air. Amazing complexity. On the palate, perfect balance between fresh acidity and body, highly concentrated and layers of complexity. Very very long. Outstanding. Still fresh enough to last another 7-10 years at least. — 9 years ago

Swiss Rose is very under rated - has bags of flavour & fantastic with lake fish around Lac Leman - hard to find outside of Switzerland except for Betty's Tea Rooms in Harrogate!! — 10 years ago

One of the best value wines I've come across. Power with elegance. Great acidity and fruit. It is great for seafood, heavy appetizers, sauced dishes or big steaks. When I bought it for my venue the deciding factor was the fact it made me smile. — 10 years ago

My favourite Fendant wine, 100% Chasselas grapes. One of the best Swiss wines I know. When bought at the Domaine you pay approx 16 Swiss francs, or € 13,50. — 12 years ago

2011 vintage. At Au Fils du Zinc in Chablis. Fabian recommended this bottle over the more famed Les Clos 2011 as he thought it would be drinking better. And boy he was right. A very big wine, I would recommend serving it ever so slightly colder than normal to restrain the power in this wine. Medium golden hue. The wine has crushed rock chalkiness, honey blossom and plenty of ripe peach notes. On the palate, this wine explodes with power and ripeness, medium plus body and a very broad mid palate that coats your tongue. The acidity makes your lips smack and powers the very long citrus finish. Hugely impressive compared with my expectations. Really enjoyable particularly with the cheese I had for dessert. Drink now - doubt it can get much better from here. — 9 years ago
