<em>"Vibrant pale gold colour. Yellow peach, Manuka honey and honey butter lead the aromas in a rich-but restrained aesthetic. Some peanut brittle and toasted almonds emerge thereafter along with whispers of toffee and smoke. The fruit sits above the savouriness after some air, keeping brightness. The balance of opulence and freshness carries over to the palate - smoked honey, butter, poached yellow apple, yellow peach, almond and praline sit within a lovely creamy texture while a fine weave of acidity pulls at the tongue keeping line and freshness throughout. There’s seemingly endless length here, it surges through the back palate with the mix of fruit and savouriness still intermingling. A very strong release from an icon of the Valley, balancing flavour and freshness. Drink from 2025-2032."</em> <strong>95 points. Tom Kline, Inside Burgundy Tasted Aug 2025</strong>
