Always a great drop and 2020 is a banger. Nose has big time gras, green and orange melon, some papaya and mango as well. So harmonious and integrated. Huge granitic minerality. Palate is rich and ripe and super precise with insane freshness from the minerals. Really coats the palate with this delicate richness and awesome vanilla extract. Really deep and unctuous but so fresh and balanced. Love that palate coating finish with the vanilla extract. Gorgeous now but air will be this wine’s friend. Now with air the nose has plantain, vanilla essence and so much more. So complex. What a silken texture and the fruit is so precise.

On day 2 this levels up! Gras, vanilla extract, guava and so so refined on the nose. Wow, so complex and juicy. Perfect balance. Explosive. So fresh and minerally. What energy! 9.4 to 9.5.

Nose is rich. Some wafting lemon flower. Elegant Brioche. Quite exquisite. Crazy complex. Just this lemon flower brioche amalgem.

Palate is nicely rich. Still fresh. Delicious. Wow. A little kiss of savoriness. Amazing.

Very solid crozes. Blue fruit, a little smoke and consommé. Not my favorite at first but so much material and some really seductive layers of fruit revealing themselves on day 3-4. — 4 months ago
