The 2020 Blagny La Piece Sous Le Bois 1er Cru has a lovely bouquet of yellow fruit mixed with wilted white flowers and hazelnut. It's refined with a soupçon of mineralité. The palate nicely balances with real concentration, countervailing acidity and a sapid, focused finish. Impressive in terms of length, this is a superb Meursault that should age with style. This shoots well above the showing from barrel. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. (Neal Martin, Vinous, July 2024)

Jul 16th, 2024Notes from La Paulee 2023 in NYC. Very floral of apple and lemon blossoms. Ripe lemon, lemon curd, yellow mealy apple, crushed minerality. Faint oak spices, and oak textures. Long finish on the roundness.
