Light yellow-gold. Youthfully taut on the nose, hinting at fresh lime, quinine, jasmine and mineral scents. The palate offers weightier, richer pear and apple qualities, with zesty lemon and lime pith notes adding lift and cut. The mineral and jasmine nuances carry through on the finish, which is pure, focused and impressively persistent. Put this one away for at least another three or four years.

A much more reserved nose requires considerable swirling to coax the reticent floral and grapefruit aromas from the glass, after which are revealed round, supple and forward flavors where the citrus character of the nose continues onto the minerally, balanced, long, precise and palate staining finish that also possesses sneaky length. Impressive. 2011+ Rating: 90-92 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Oct 2008)
Domaine Guffens-Heynen
The wines from the original domaine of Jean-Marie and Maine Guffens, where Jean-Marie developed the winemaking skills which are now used to the full at Verget. Maine has given up being a vigneronne to look after their adopted girls in the warmer climes of Château des Tourettes in the Lubéron. The domaine vines are still looked after in the same horticultural way by the caretaker, and the only real change in recent years has been the installation of a 'new' press (it is at least twenty years old), which Jean-Marie bought from a Champagne house - the domaine vines have always been pressed in an old-fashioned vertical press, and he saw no reason to change.

Slightly paler than the Crays, this is all in finesse. Slightly leaner too - a blade-like slipping wet stone and rock juice. It's immensely attractive without being as 'large' as the Crays.

Love the clean cut brightness here. Delicious. Real ping and crisp drive. Bright, citrus and chalky too. Great feel - this motors on and on. Nice weight but it is that freshness that steals the show. This is wine with a...(read more)
