I read an article recently where the author felt that this 1er cru probably deserved to be a Grand Cru. Whilst this was very good I think it is right at Premier Cru. Initial notes were salinity amongst the apple, citrus flavours and a touch of beeswax. The following night tasted more “new World “. This was very enjoyable but needs to develop more complexity. I will leave my remaining bottle for a couple of years.

Yellow apple, cantaloupe, peach, pear with wet stone influences and balanced acidity. Dry on the palate, nice complement to the richness of the risotto and seared scallops. ABV 13%.
