Bare with me as I attempt to describe the nose, imagine the nose from turkey dinner the day after when you’re seeking a turkey sandwich from Thanksgiving Day leftovers immediately after peeling back the foil. There is a lot going on the palate. White blossoms and mandarin orange on the front palate, honeysuckle mid palate with appropriate acid mid-back palate that increase with time - perfect finish!

Baby Chassagne/Meursault? Textured, round, complex. Nose and palate show tremendous depth and balance. Still shows that bright zippy acid I get in Maconnais wines.

Beautiful expression. I’m a big fan of Ch Fuisse but this may surpass that.

A lovely example the vintage. Impeccably balanced with just enough richness to off set the acidity.
