ok, nothing memorable

2015 vintage

Drinking beautifully now. Cellar temp, over a long dinner. Paired perfectly with smoked mackerel and trout. Very rich texture, long glycerine finish. Touch of mint/spice on initial taste, with strong acidity to balance richness.

2007 vintage

Last vintage fully made by Didier. Excellent. Short of oily but definitely a dense and rich texture for Sauvignon. Fresh and clean, bright yellow fruit. Late night off the list, notes from memory.

"Baby are you okay? You've barely touched your Char-spookerie." (Chicago, IL) : Served double blind. Incredibly floral nose, to the point where I thought this was viognier, but with acidity. The strangeness was having the aromatic intensity along with the acidity; a bit of a stumper, I couldn't think of anything that had that sort of profile. A good amount of alcohol on the back end as well. After the reveal, I'll admit that this wine made sense. Despite my …

Pop and pour, notes from 3 hrs open. As with the Pur Sang, this needs a lot of air right now. With air, this is stunning. Gooseberry, sour apple, lemon oil, mint leaf. On the palate: great density and richness, but balanced by fantastic acidity. Mint-infused oil, lemon peel, lovely herbal notes. Lovely, clean finish.

Kleur: Middel strogeel Aroma / bouquet: Stuivend en fris aroma, strak en zuiver, duidelijke accenten van vuursteen, sappige limoentjes en onrijpe ananas. Smaak / Afdronk: Ook in de mond toont deze frisse krachtpatser zich onvermoeibaar. Fris en sappig met een dorstlessende zuurgraad, retronasale indrukken van limoen en vuursteen. Lange, prettig frisse afdronk. Algemeen / potentieel: Dit is Sauvignon-Blanc op zijn mooist, een koninklijk glas! 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 11 + Smaak / Afdronk: 17 + Algemeen …

Seems like this bottling is their rounder, richer and a bit flabbier though and sweeter rounder feel. Lacks a bit of focus and precision like Pur Sang & Silex. 89

FROM MAGNUM: This was a very gracious contribution from my best man during the wedding weekend. The cork was saturated up 9/10 of the way and this seemed to be in a perfect place. The balance, elegance, and tension Didier could harness were all on display here. In a house that was half full of “I prefer reds” everyone was crooning over how lovely this was. The verve, balance, and elegance were front & center as we celebrated our weekend …

Kleur: Bleek goudgeel Aroma / bouquet: Loepzuiver aroma met tonen van vuursteen, rijp citrusfruit en onrijp tropisch fruit, rijpe limoen in combinatie met de zuurgraad van onrijpe ananas. Smaak / Afdronk: Frisse zuurgraad, sappig en geconcentreerd, vuursteen. Lange afdronk met een zachte zuurgraad in de afdronk. Algemeen / potentieel: Een wijn van 100% Sauvignon-Blanc maakt zelden indruk op me, maar de wijnen van Daguenau stellen nooit teleur. 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 11 + Smaak / Afdronk: …

At dinner with my beautiful Bride so no copious notes. What can I say, it’s Dageneau. It’s sleek, elegant and expressive albeit way too young. Excellent aromas, body, structure, balance. Excellent Pouilly-Fume and worth the money. Sorry not much help beyond that. Note: Please forgive my errant reference to white burg prior to this edit. It as an obvious ‘brain fart’ since the wine is from the Loire Valley. Thanks to Kirk for catching it and very tactfully asking why …

way over the hill.

a few of my 07s have regrettably gone down the drain on account of age, but this bottle was magnificent, with acidity and complex, spicy flavors of candied lemon peel and pear. if anyone reading this still has any 07s in the cellar, i would strongly suggest pulling the cork asap and crossing your fingers!

2007 vintage

Uncorked 1 hour in advance. Very Dagueneau all over. Very mineral nose, heavy fruit perfume on the nose - some of it tropical. The palate very balanced, heavy full body. a great wine. Best 2017-2022. 92-93.

2007 vintage

Tons of minerals, notes of guava and lemon zest. I confess that I'm not entirely sure about the cellaring potential of these wines - this seemed pretty ready and I'm not sure I would like what it might turn into. Time will tell.

2007 vintage

Initially tight but opened up quite nicely over an hour. Lemon curd, grassiness, brine....as a friend said "it smells nice and inviting". Bracing acidity, really fresh and pops in the mouth. Fully body. Almost unctuous. Long finish. Really a great bottle.

2007 vintage

Avec ce nez intense, buisson renard annonce un sauvignon de haute volée, mur et frais, riche, roche et racé. Le pamplemousse frais, le zeste d'agrumes (tantôt pamplemousse rose, citron vert, citron sicilien), et bien d'autres agrumes (la fine amertume d'une pointe de yuzu, le cédrat...) s'entremêlent aux senteurs de fleurs blanches, de vétiver, de gingembre confit et autres tonalités minerales (quel joli caillou!). Quand le moment vient de le déguster, il tapisse le palais avec une matière concentrée et rehaussée …

From the Enomatic machine at Hedonism Wines. Funky nose here - grassy green gooseberries and somehow just a hint of sweet botrytis. On the palate, this is totally different. Intense green acidity. Very thick texture, but this never gets goopy. Kind of weird how different the nose is from the palate, but somehow it all still works.

N stone fruit, closed P fleshy, juicy, but not as distinct as I'd hoped for

Big Wednesday Wine Night (Extra Space) : Appearance is clear, pale intensity, lemon colour. Nose is clean, medium intensity, with a complex melange of aromas - smoky, flint minerality, citrus fruits, and some oily notes. On the palate, this wine has mouth-watering high acidity, on a full body with flavours of citrus fruits, lemon, lime, stony minerality, slight chalk, and also a vanilla creaminess that I think must be some kind of oak influence. Long finish. Excellent mouth-feel and so …

2007 vintage

beautiful, herbal, focused, ripping high acid, extremely precise wine. This is in a great place right now. I decanted mine for probably an hour and a half. There's a lot of tart citrus fruit in there, which might be a little much for some, but the pretty floral and tealike aromas kept me coming back, and I like tart citrus. outstanding.

2007 vintage

Cool nose of chalk and oysters. Very structured, edgy, an "intellectual" wine. Very good but needs time.

2007 vintage

oodles of crushed seashells, gooseberry and pear. Lemon zest on the palate with a significant chalky mineral element and some savory notes. Ready now and would probably keep evolving for a few more years.

2007 vintage

Kleur: Strogeel Aroma / bouquet: Expressief, stuivend fris met tonen van vooral grapefruit, limoen en wat groene appel. Smaak / Afdronk: Friszure aanzet, prachtige mineraliteit, veel fraicheur maar desondanks mondvullend en complex. Retronasale indrukken van een vleugje tropisch en Fruitella. Algemeen / potentieel: Geweldig mooie Sauvignon Blanc. 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 12 + Smaak / Afdronk: 17 + Algemeen / potentieel: 8 = 92/100

2007 vintage

At "An Afternoon of Ovid" burger grill All wet stone on the nose with a little meadow grass. Pop & pour--doesn't scream SauvBl at first. Lots of mineral, light grapefruit and lime. Strong essence of gingersnap and paraffin. Very round, almost RS sweetness on the finish. Very creamy mouthfeel. Nice mouthwatering acidic astringency.

2007 vintage

Outstanding with scents of chalk, crushed stone, and quince. The palate was awash with mineral notes, lemon, lime, and faint green apple. I wish I had more...

2007 vintage

Pale and a lean laser beam of crackling grapefruit acidity and minerality. Terrific intensity for its weightlessness. Mouthwatering.
