This is a YOUNG WINE. I decanted for 2-3 hours and it really benefitted. I’ve had it at 8 years and it really shines. Very enjoyable now with some air but clearly more to say in the future. — 7 years ago

Very fine mousse. Aromas of a partial #barrelfermented base wine and lees, vanilla, cream and pastries. On the palate it has surprising citrus and stone fruit and a touch of elderflower. #southafricanwine #capeclassics — 8 years ago

Kinda disappointing. Bought at auction. High hopes. Very good acidity and beautiful nose. Earthy but so thin and didn't quite have the elegance of other top Gevry's. — 9 years ago

Recognizable as sauv blanc, but so different from my frequent New Zealand sauv blancs. No grapefruit or grassiness. No cat pee. Just classic sauv blanc fragrance and minerality. — 10 years ago

The first audible of the night was this stunning 2015 Hubert Lignier M-S-D 1er VV that John pulled out in between the Rabbit and Beef courses. Full disclosure, I get twitterpated when a bottle of H. Lignier gets opened. There’s just something in the style that’s mesmerizing across the range, from the Passetoutgrain to the Clos de la Roche. These are wines of power and grace. Well fruited but with layers of complexity. John considers this to be the best value of H. Lignier’s offerings. Hard to argue. — 7 years ago

Best rose I've had this summer, perfect for a hot summer day on the patio. — 9 years ago

Great clarity. A bright, lifted nose and crisp and intense mid palate. Really good stuff — 10 years ago

2012 vintage. Pale lemon hue. Quite round on the nose and creamy oak, ripe lemon and short-cake - reminds me of Chablis but with less minerality. On the palate, powerful attack of concentrated ripe lemon fruits and hints of apricot. High acidity, medium body and medium plus concentration. Real bite on the finish. There's an elegance in the mid palate and a decent finish. Good now but drink until 2025. — 10 years ago

My goodness this was delicious. Popped and poured; consumed over three days. Enjoyable on Day 1 after a few hours of air and through Day 3 as it slowly evolved. Initially very tightly wound. Red plums, earth and wet rocks. So pure and so energetic. Incredible length. This just seems to hang on. After trying this (and their transcendent Clos de la Roche), it’s clear that Hubert and Laurent are wizards. Quality at every level. Bravo. — 8 years ago

I'm a little surprised by this wine. Hopping it's not that my palate was shot. — 10 years ago
