This is a totally brilliant wine. Just outrageous. The nose is a 10. Caramel, ocean air, salt, fresh wood shavings, burnt embers, tea leaves, just unreal. Completely blown away. You cannot ask for anything more. It’s so expressive yet so grounded. Absolute peak aromatic brilliance. It is so scary elegant you think it’s floating but that saltiness kicks in while swishing and then icing on a cake like a dry Mosel but unreal clarity and richness to the salty nutty flavors and just thunderous acidity. The elegance and inner mouth aromas and flavor intensity are just incredible. This and the 2010 are neck and neck. — 20 days ago

2018. Beautifully balanced dessert wine. Butterscotch flavors that linger on the palate. — 5 months ago

Nutty, sweet, floral and bright. Bruised apple, pear, and spice. Very complex and juicy, with a pleasantly astringent finish. — 6 months ago

Possibly one of my desert island wines ( assuming there is food & a few other wines I can bring…). Jura chard w some Savignin, done in an oxidative, full bodied style. Have come back to this most years & never tires. The color! Amber yellow w orange & sienna tints; on nose my old painting studio with oils, hearts of palm, & orange peel. On palate full & more refined than the nose, with white asparagus, dried mango, & cooked fennel, amongst other flavors. Had post meal, was like a meal unto itself. — 6 months ago
