Marks and reviews

/100

Decanter

One of the lighter takes on the vintage, there is not a huge amount of botrytis character here, which means the sweetness feels a little heavy. Attractive peach and apricot flavours. 85% Sémillon, 10% Sauvignon Blanc and 5% Muscadelle.

/20

Jancis Robinson

Light, simple, rather sugary nose. Loose on the finish. Serves to highlight the quality of the more ambitious wines. (JR)

/20

René Gabriel

Kunz barrel sample 17: powerful, full bouquet, apples, grapefruit peels, honey. Plumper, broader palate with pronounced sweetness, light acidity, medium aromatics, soft finish.

Jean-Marc Quarin

Fluid wine.
