Rich, but still fresh. Thick but not heavy. Dry but with filming mouth. Nice citrus.

Tighter than a frogs butthole. Need to do a side by side with PYCM. I'm not the biggest fan of this wine but we shall see what age does to it.

Precision and class. Generous yet mineral.

Un vin avec juste un peu de réduction, citron, une belle intensité et énergie, une belle chair aussi avec une tension bien dosée et une belle finale de longueur appréciable et savoureuse. 93-94

A wine with a touch of reduction, nice energy, intensity and depth, with good backbone and some flesh around it, nice fairly lenghty and delicious finish. Very “Chassagne like” in my mind.

Rounded citrus and floral, but a bit straightforward

Restraint, slate, tension, with just a touch of peach and white flowers. Will age. PYCM making great Chassagne from the spousal family vineyard.
