A Louis Jadot project in Oregon, this is really nicely done. Very Meursault-like nose features toasty oak notes, oatmeal, wet limestoney seeming earth (is there even any limestone in the Willamette Valley?). Nice appley/pear fruit. Acids are unsurprisingly softer than the Côte d’Or, but the flavors are spot-on. Loads of fruit and mineral-inflected earth. Slight bitter note in the finish is welcome. Really good!
