Nose is almost over the top with lemon syrup-drenched Chardonnay fruit on a slab of stanky crushed chalky seashells. Wee bit of lactic toastiness too. First sip on pop n pour was cloying, but with 20 minutes everything came into balance. Intense, piercing fruit, nice acids, and then finish turns up the clean chalky minerality. Not the most complex 1er cru but it has a large presence.

I am loving what great winemakers did in '13. What a stunning nose of lemon candy, minerals, some funk and so clean. Lovely palate. Ripe and juicy with being pristinely clean and so pure It reminds me of a mountain stream. I love these wines. Balanced and fresh with nice easy going acids and great amplitude and volume on the palate. Lovely flesh and dominant mineral tones. Green apple and pear skin abound.

What an exhilarating experience! Crisp, lemon-cream and mineral goodness that just lingers on.

Some flint and smoke. Yellow super juicy fruit - intense. Powerful wine, almost bowls you over.

Green apple, flint, grapefruit and lemon, white flowers on the nose and palate. Long finish with high acidity.
