Only Julien’s 2nd white 1er Cru and what an outstanding wine. Nose is rich, ripe and buttery with scintillating minerality. Also lemon oil, vanilla extract, plantains and some lime zest. Unique and complex. Palate is lean yet rich with amazing precision and focus but seems to a bit unyielding and will need air. Juicy and laser like in its precision. Super juicy and a zen like serenity on the palate and a gorgeous mineral wash on the finish. Very very pure and sappy and delicate. This is so well made. Lingering finish of lemon flesh and lemon oil. As this aerates its class and finesse really shine through. This is super elegant and all class.

Traditional Left Bank Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (75%), Merlot (15%) and Cabernet Franc (10%). Nose is loaded with green pepper (pyrazines), earth and black fruit. Pallet features blackberry and dark plum fruit with highlights of spice, vanilla, graphite and intense oak on the long finish. Tannins are quite silky. Nice balance of alcohol (13.5%) and acidity. Very South American in style. Thank You Ron B. — 3 years ago

A accidentally find in my cellar it’s a huge mess! This is what Burghs are all about. This one needs air. Plenty of tannins left should go for another 4 years or so. Crushed Marble, Port wine notes, touch cherry 🍒, hint cinnamon, tree bark, touch bitter, black tea notes. Tomorrow more after 24h’s on the Argon line. Mellowed further out. — 9 months ago
