Really had a craving for a high acid white in the spring sun! This is from 90+ year old vines from the Saumur region. Upon opening there was a lot of sediment/turbidity and even some residual co2, which quickly blew off. I smell a beautiful dusty marzipan chenin nose. On the palate this has citrus, marzipan, a little peach and a popcorn like reduction. Obviously enough acidity. A little oxidation which adds to the complexity of the marzipan flavors. Gained balance after 30 minutes. Next bottle in a year or so if I can keep my hands off them. — 2 days ago

Medium lemon colour , gold reflexes . Quite a lot of ripe yellow fruits , lemon rind and , orange flower . On the palate this is quite rich and round on the palate with yellow fruits, lemon rind , orange and almost some apricot or peach . Quite high alcohol but balanced acidity, good intensity , quite dense though just balanced overall. Would have preferred a little less weight and a bit more freshness . Alright length . This is ready now , but will probably last another 3-5 years but I wouldn’t leave it too long. — 2 months ago
