Uncorked:

2 parcels, 1 of 90 years old, 1 of 40 years old - near Latricieres, La Roche. Fruit coated fine tannins, good minerally texture, fabulous long finish.

Julia Harding:

Ripe and rhubarb-like fruit. Then pretty tough and bitter on the finish. 15 points

Jancis Robinson:

Rather smashed rhubarby fruit. Sweet start. More like make-up than a wine! Very scented. Easy and just slightly tarty. Is this all grapes rather than a little enzyme addition? Drink 2012-15 15.5 points
