Within the last decade, Ramonet’s 14’s and 17’s are likely most regarded. Expressive and pure and not at all fat like his 15’s can be. Here, showing signature Ramonet peppermint, citrus blossoms, white flowers, Bosc pear and a touch of wildflower honey and spices. The finish is a bit abrupt for 1er Cru Ramonet. It’s a bit backward today as the initial pour was the best and loses intensity over time. Although ‘17’ white Burgundy typically showing really well today, even more so than ‘16, I’d hold this one.

Nice young straw gold color. Citrus dominated nose with notes of peach, pear, minerals, wet earth, pit fruit and some spice. Nice and round in the mouth. This has just enough age for the components of the wine to come nicely together. Still young and needs time.

Wow, incredibly rich, dense and powerful. Definitely on the opulent side but beautiful length and balancing acid. Layers of citrus, lemon curd, almost marscapone, herb, mineral. Decadent. I imagine this will improve but delicious now.
