Medium light lemon yellow colour . This is quite reserved and closed , quite a difference from the incorrect Pucelles . Quite mineral , chalky and stony , touch of struck match , white flowers , some lemon pith , focused and detailed , with the freshness the Pucelles lacked. On the palate this is denser and richer than the nose suggests with lemon peel , touch of white peach , chalky and mineral , excellent extract and good freshness . Quite long rich and intense but still really well balanced finish . This needs more time , I would leave this another 3-5 years and will last well a further 10 years . — 12 days ago

Weeeee! It’s not poxed!Nice floral complimented with lemon zest and firm acidity. Characteristics improved as we enjoyed the bottle through dinner, indicating it’s still a bit young and not quite ready for prime time. — a month ago
Definitely, shows the fruit of 22. Lighter style extraction. A nice pair with Petit Filet Mignon with Glazed Cipollini onions and Red Peppers drizzled in a light gravy.
Bright, ripe and floral fruits of; blackberries, dark cherries, baked strawberries, raspberries, hints of blueberries, some pomegranate, really nice, soft, spice, light baking spices-clove, nutmeg, cinnamon & vanillin, dark, rich, turned earth, a touch of tree bark with sap, just a touch of eucalyptus,dry top soil, red & purple flowers, round acidity, not overly complex but drinks very easy with a nice, balanced finish that lasts under a minute and falls on light spice & dry top soil.
Also, finished nicely with a bite of flourless chocolate cake w/ raspberries.
