À propos

6 years in old barrels, 8 in the bottle. Surprisingly clear wine, with a strong deep yellow color that immediately shows the wine's character and power. It needs some minutes to open up (served at 12°c). Nose of vanilla and caramel and pastry cream. Orange and lemon zest, magnolia flowers and a whole universe of other things that create an infinite connection to my memory. It comes close to my idea of deliciousness. It's so strong and powerful that I recommend it as a meditation wine more than for food pairing. In the mouth it's sour and wonderful, it's complexity is unbelievable. Persistence almost eternal. (I did another tasting after 14/15 hours from the bottle opening, the wine was now a bit cooler and again it seemed to me that this wine absolutely doesn't care about time: it was still powerful and a bit more complex and "smoky".) Surprising and deeply connected with emotions, as (for me) every wine by Robinot. Really touching. Wonderful wonderful wine.
