Great acid and length. Sea shells, minerals and cornflakes. Corn-flakey oxidation became more prominent after a few hours.

Still a baby, it needs a lot more time or a lot of air, but it is still compelling.

Nez sur l anis et l herbe fraîche
Bouche suave et velouté avec un peu moins de gras que d autres crus du vigneron mais tres belle equilibre
Finale longue sur les bonbons a l anis
Superbe mais très jeune

Really good, but too young! Intense oyster shell, salt, lemon, sourdough. Very electric

Good fruit. A touch shorter and more obvious than the Vaillons alongside but with a riper and more pronounced mid palate. What it lacks by comparison in finesse it compensates for with power of fruit. Delicious
