One cannot ever drink enough elite St. Pourcain. A dream of a nose with gorgeous aromas of butter, minerals. baked apple, iodine and wet earth. Just stunning and evocative. Layered and so complex. Wow. What a palate. Salty, rich, but fresh and textured. Long and rich but so much energy. Coats the backend so nicely and such pure sappiness. Just a stunner. Sadly no made in 2021. Amazing length and purity. Masterful balance. A genius wine. Is this a 9.6? Maybe. Let’s see how it develops. — 2 years ago

One of true great secrets of the wine world. 70% Chardonnay and 30% Tressallier. Nothing like it. Energy for days. Beautiful pillow like aromas. Candied but so barely it’s remarkable. Hint of confectionary. Stoney, so floral. Haunting. Just ridiculous. This is the best bottle of this wine I’ve had so far. There is such a purity to the aromas which are so unique because Tressallier is such a freaky grape. But it’s a fine aroma. Amazing palate. Such depth, density and acidity and a taught structure. The energy and intensity is incredible. So long, so mineral. Outrageous. This would compete in a line up of Meursault Perrieres. Structure to burn and a bright future. This will be best in 7 years I think. This is built like a brick house. — 5 years ago
Smooth textured white with pear and vanilla on the palate. — 4 months ago
First time having this varietal I believe. Floral nose, with a bit of a waxy texture, lemon and pear. Nice acid. Fun. — 7 months ago
