No signs of pox. Syrupy bright lemon, tingling acidity still. A little simple, but good body and length. Good stuff.

Superb wine with a rich generosity, ripe fruit profile balanced by a high acidity and a vibrant minerality. Well placed secondary aromas develops in a nutty mineral tertiary aromas. Expressive and balanced with a long finish. Drinks well, but with structure to age for another five years. Just lovely!

Aug 30th, 2018Outstanding quality wine, rich and concentrated yet driven by a good freshness and a mineral core. offers some maturity yet dominated by an intense fruit and balanced portion of oak. .Good presence on the palate with a harmonic fade out throughout a long finish.

2022 vintage. Most excellent lunchtime visit from the esteemed @Pinotman /// Andreas . A fave C-M plot. Premmie Cru (always nice) effort. We traced this wine through the various temps. Generous, yet balanced acidity coupled with fruit in the early, chilly going. Light-medium/medium body. Back-end oak influence that was complimentary during the visit. Never got flabby…even when it warmed up to 60+ degrees. Classically structured with phenomenal tension. No rush to crush yet drinking so well so early. Decisions…decisions. Enjoy as you will under your preferred palate/aging guidelines. There is no wrong answer here. 11 bottles left and I only can wish of having another case at my disposal. Picked up a case of this, Les Vergers and Les Caillerets after only sampling Les Vergers (9.4) from the 2022 vintage. May have lucked out on that flyer. 3.4.26.
