Medium yellow colour. Deep fruit with an edge of creamy brioche. Fills the mouth with rich, but not too rich flavours. Lovely creamy fruit in the mid-palate. Below sixty francs this is almost good value.

Medium cherry-red colour. The nose is rather understated, but very well-knit. Again we step up in elegance despite some grain to the tannin. Very respectable finishing. A very nice wine.

Medium cherry-red colour. The nose is a little higher toned than the Roger Belland cuvée. In the mouth the tannin is on a higher level and to a certain extent dominates the pretty fruit. Good length, but certainly needs cellar time.

Medium, medium pale lemon yellow. This is the first of the range that shows a rather tight nose. The palate is wide open though, it’s soft with very pretty and intense fruit. Another nice wine.

The nose is mineral with a citrus twist. Concentrated, the minerality really comes through on the mid-palate and into the finish. Despite the concentration, this wine is all about mineral rather than fruit flavours – very impressive.

Bottled at the end of February. The nose is high-toned and shows nice depth. This is quite big in the mouth, there’s plenty of fruit extract and just the right amount of acidity to whisk you into a good finish.

Medium-plus golden – certainly a worrying colour for one so young. The nose confirms quite a high level of oxidation. For me (with a significant dislike of oxidation) this was barely drinkable. If you have this wine check it now – urgently!

Medium-pale yellow. Deep and creamy, vanilla-laden nose – I never did find any fruit. The palate is a real mix of fruit and mineral attributes, well-balanced acidity and really impressive complexity. This is a lovely wine and quite easy to drink today, though for the short-term I’d put Amiot’s wine ahead, longer-term I think there’s more to this wine.
