Black cherry, earth funk but brought and fruity. Great balance and acidity. Fun and interesting but also something I could drink regularly. Awesome baby bandol! — 9 years ago

Pale gold. Nose of medium+ intensity showing stone fruits meal, oyster shell , toasty oak and leesy notes. Palate shows the same stone fruit and oak notes but all in perfect balance. Long finish. A very good wine but will cellar. Priced at $120.84. Wine of the day at WSET Level 3. — 10 years ago
An 09 I opened and then vacuum pumped and left for 2 weeks (out of town). It just got better!. Dark and big but not too brawney. Raspberry as opposed to plum fruitv. Nice spice and a just a bit of sweetness — 12 years ago

11 June 2018. Frenchette, New York, NY. — 8 years ago
Beautifully balanced, stone fruit emerging, aromatic and a zippy acidity that provides structure for the sweetness. Another reason to love Chenin. — 10 years ago
Bright sunshine. Lisa wants to drink this on the porch of our plantation overlooking the Spanish moss covered elms. Lemon, orange peel, stones. Living and vibrant. Great acid/fruit balance. Med+ length. ~chalky texture. Delicious now but good to age. — 10 years ago
This is delicious, though from a riper vintage so a bit more round and luscious than normal. Crunchy minerality, soft oak notes and starting to develop the walnut/hazelnut and bruised apple and pear that time provides. Classy stuff, indeed. — 11 years ago

Pretty average all around. I had higher expectations, but they weren’t fulfilled. I have had no luck with higher priced white wines. Maybe I’m just drinking excellent value lower priced ones, because I find them much better! — 7 years ago
