Pale lemon, with a nose primarily of white and yellow flowers, fairly delicate. Some wet slate mineral tones as well. Carried through on the palate with typical racy acidity. Lacks a bit in concentration, but overall a nice wine. There are better examples of dry Riesling for the price — 15 days ago

Developing. Tightly-coiled as expected, gave it a full day. Rubber, mint, wet stone, flaky minerals, nice poise & balance. Lovely work. — 3 years ago

Elegant Vin Jaune by reputed producer Lucien Aviet in Montigny-les-Arsures, just north of Arbois. Savagnin from several plots, aged for 8 years under veil. Intense, complex nose with aromas of nuts and curry. Fresh, lively on the palate. Slightly saline, mouthwatering acidity — 4 years ago

On open. Cidery shit.

Wait 90 minutes.

Nose: fermented dried apricots. But pretty. Complex.

Palate: dried Riesling. Apricot sherry. Smells better than it tastes.

Unique. Not sure it’s good. — 4 months ago
