Lots going on right out of the gate . Your nose leads you to believe you entered a French bakery. Pears and baked apples linger in the background. The first taste weighs your tongue down but almost immediately flavors of citrus , spearmint and. baked bread jump around on a trampoline made of acidity. Don’t laugh, reminded me of the uniqueness of Vatan. — 2 years ago

Quite lovely, some density and savory notes wrapped up in this fresh little 2012 from a new producer for me. Would happily drink this again, would be intriguing to try it next to Vatan or Dagueneau — 5 years ago

A reductive nose, which blew off in about 20 minutes. In the mouth you stop for a second and ask yourself, Jura? Oxidative palate yet crazy levels of freshness. A fire hose of acidity that assaults your mouth but is joined by pure fruit. Wonderful intense finish.
Like Vatan, singular and not everyone’s taste. — 4 years ago

@Joe Weinberger I am going to cop-out and say I do not know. I have not had enough data points to give you a well informed answer. It has the requirements to age but I have no clue what will happen. Better not sure, different probably. I have a few of these so I will let them sleep. I do have a ‘13 Les Noels that I will probably open in the next 2 to 3 years. I wish I could be more helpful.
Would be great if someone who has tasted these with some age would chime in. @Antonio Galloni ?

@Joe Weinberger i’d save. Had older from Leroy and they age well.

@Ira Schwartz @P S thank you both for your advice—really appreciate it!

Another stunning Saurint Sauvignon. This is up there with the likes of Dagueneau and Vatan, phenomenally crafted, concentrated and weightless, with some extra tropical minerality — 6 years ago

The most delicious and refined super premium wine out Spain that you never heard of. A selection of the fruit from a small old vineyard plot planted over 100 years ago. Only the best will go i to Vatan Arena, and a special Wine this is. Think Bordeaux meets with early 80’s Napa and had a lovechild! If you get a chance to by some, drink some do it! I can only imagine how this beauty would age! — 6 years ago
