Lovely ripe nose of pears and ripe lemons, gently spicy. Great acidity and freshness, lovely weight to the fruit. Not too heady, just perfectly ripe. Yummy. Nice salty edge that comes through on the fruit.

Pinot Noir.
This was to be bottled at the same time as the others, in November 2022. Like the whites it had been recently racked, but unlike them was still unsulphured. Fresh as you like, not much depth of colour, but the freshness...(read more)

7 different plots (lieu-dits) for this.
Richer nose, spicy pears and yellow plums. Flowers and white blossom. Lovely oak framing the fruit – but the salty minerality cuts through it – with an arrow like acidity. R...(read more)

Far ‘stonier’ nose – both in fruit and the sense of minerality. Wet stones. You can feel the intensity of the fruit on the nose – Mirabelle plums and greengages. Gorgeous full core of fruit on the palate, with some more...(read more)

First picked and ready – always a sunny site.
Lovely nose – greengages and grapefruit. Gentle spice. Very ripe and rich on the palate, then with more of the minerality on the palate, almost peppery. There is so mu...(read more)

A bit more restraint on the nose here. More perfumed than ripe fruit on the nose – touch of honeysuckle. The energy is evident here – like a tightly wound coil, waiting to be released, with plenty of power. Lovely grapef...(read more)

Riper, broader Chassagne nose. From 3 parcels. Richer and delicious, on chalk. Fuller fruit but with excellent length, finesse and freshness. White peaches and flowers. Very satisfying.

Pure nose – very enticing. Greengages and a greener profile of fruit, compared to the yellow fruit on the Chassagne. Touch of spice, grapefruit pith, wet stones. Great structure and beautifully balanced. Very attractive.
