"Drought and scorching heat during the summer marked this very interesting vintage. Bottled in January 2020. A bit of grassiness as well as menthol and mineral-like notes infuse the perfectly ripe white fruit, notably pear. An overall impression of focused clarity and minerality, as well as a silky texture for a 2018 that is taut and weightless. Has real ageing potential."

"Alluring, with impressive range and complexity, showing salted butter notes that frame the core of light brioche, apple and pear flavors, while thyme and white ginger details complete the mix. Very focused, elegant and precise, this could use a few more years to open up fully but is approachable now."

"Light golden. High toned and bright, with a pretty complex nose of honeysuckle, tangerine, citrus blossom, and rosewater. The palate is full-bodied, with dense, ripe orchard and citrus fruit, notes of sea spray, salt and white pepper, leading to a finish laced with crushed shell and talc. Powerful and delightful."
