My first ‘blanc’ from Côte des Nuits. Somewhere straighter, less buttery than Côte des Beaune. Nice acidity, lemon peal, vanilla. Medium length. Paired With John Dory in Le Havre. — 13 days ago
Zesty lemon flavours, nice ‘italian’ bitters, paired with Rombone al Forno. — 3 months ago
Great 100% marsanne from Villard. Fresh wine with smell of abricots and almonds. Must have been long on lees and subtle wood. — 4 months ago
Great Preuses. Ripe yellow fruit. Fortunately not on the tropical side. Mineral even oyster water in the back. More elegance than the Clos tasted two years ago. Paired with langoustines, caviar and reduction of heads of langoustines @Armendu in Nevez France. one of the best winelists — 10 days ago
