Super fresh and precise on the nose. Packed with minerals- lime, slate, salinity. Quite a glycerin mouthfeel. Super fresh and compact. All the transparency of 2011 and Raveneau. Needs time in the glass to open up. Still a puppy, but spectacular and all in place. Benefitting from air.

Jul 6th, 2018The wine is surprisingly open for a 2014. Slate, schist, beautiful minerality. Wait 3 to 5 years for optimum complexity. 10 x the price of secret address in burgundy last week.
