Nose: passion fruit. Intense and typical but not goofy.

Palate: intense passion fruit. Balanced. Delicious. Not too tooty fruity. — a year ago

Honey, port wine on the nose with a silky mouthfeel and perfect viscosity. The finish has a burn which is perfect not soft like an aberlour and it’s not sweet either. Masterpiece! — 5 years ago

Quite a bit of weight but that is Le Moine. Close to a super Volnay but it is Pommard. Red currants, saline, high minerality and super long burn. Wow. — 6 years ago

Garigue, highly perfumed, meaty, Smokey, rather a masculin rayas with long peppery burn. Close to perfection. Full of life contrary to the 2008 rayas of yesterday at Guy Savoy. And at 2/3 of the price we paid in Paris. Privilege to drink such a bottle. — 7 years ago

Very intense nose. Wood nicely integrated still very much primary fruit flavors: cherry, strawberries. Nice burn, good salinity. Elegant effort unlike many austere les saints-george’s. — 7 years ago

This one is going to need a new hours. Some funk, but it will wander away soon enough. There’s also tobacco, flowers and tar. Mushrooms and chestnut and a sense of the warmth of 1997. Mint, menthol, a sender of gaminess. Chestnuts as well. Really well put together aromas after the funk blow off. A sense of harmony. Wood shavings. So old school. Dynamite nose. Juicy and so deep with unreal tannins and such purity and depth. Huge cherry fruit and a lovely gamey, feral quality. Palate has structure to burn and will really really age for another 10-15 years. This is a stunning stunning bottle. So juicy and super elegant despite being substantial with how much fruit and structure there is. Just a ridiculous bottle. — 7 years ago

Clear, deep ruby in color; on the nose, it's clean with medium intensity primary and secondary aromas of blackberries, cassis, and graphite; on the palate, it's dry with high acidity, high tannins, high alcohol, full body, and pronounced primary and secondary flavors of black cherries, blueberries, black cardamom and bell pepper with a long finish. This wine is complex and intense. Overall, I rate this wine as very good. — 4 months ago

One of true great secrets of the wine world. 70% Chardonnay and 30% Tressallier. Nothing like it. Energy for days. Beautiful pillow like aromas. Candied but so barely it’s remarkable. Hint of confectionary. Stoney, so floral. Haunting. Just ridiculous. This is the best bottle of this wine I’ve had so far. There is such a purity to the aromas which are so unique because Tressallier is such a freaky grape. But it’s a fine aroma. Amazing palate. Such depth, density and acidity and a taught structure. The energy and intensity is incredible. So long, so mineral. Outrageous. This would compete in a line up of Meursault Perrieres. Structure to burn and a bright future. This will be best in 7 years I think. This is built like a brick house. — 6 years ago
