Aromas of lemon & verbena, nougat, marzipan & shortbread, crushed stones…but could a wine taste more yellow?!?! From lemon to pear, w golden delicious, mirabelle, quince, yuzu & star fruit ~ simultaneously rich yet electric w vibrant sappy juice, acidic core and a dusty mineral finish balancing the experience out!

Lime and slate and high toned acidity. Great intense fruit and vigor. Young

Plush fruit. Peaches, lemon, steeliness. Rich and pretty. Lacks some of the thrust of other vintages but sexy and open.

A really lively nose, fresh lemon oil and lime, slate, some tropical notes, kiwi, guava. On the palate flint, soft poised citrus, some hints of peach. Very balanced and long. Lovely right now

Pear. Lemon oil, slate and white flowers on the nose. Beautiful fruit and clarity and balance. Salinity and great length. Really good

Light gold. Cool on the nose- slate line, lemon oil, . Settled and integrated. Finiteness and great acidity but less aggressive than in youth. Some secondary notes. Very good stuff.

A strong Citrus presence with Lemon and Lime with a big savoury mineral impact. Medium plus intensity. A pleasure to drink - see previous notes. Lives up to its Premier Cru billing from Puligny Montrachet. Juicy.

Medium gold, darker than an 06 white burg next to it. Very quiet nose. Not giving up much, even with hours of air. Maybe some citrus, some funk. Faint acidity. But hard to pick up. Something was just off with this bottle… didn’t have notes of POX, was a little musty but not corked. Still drinkable and going to just chalk it up as “off”.

A great Monopole and excellent for the vintage. Mineral and saline to complement its ripeness.

Bright and lifted. Lemon and spiritz. Delicious and dynamic.
