tastes similar to a Rhône white. Creamy, herbal, almost anise and mint, deep yellow fruits. Enjoyable, but balance of phenolic and chemical maturity seems a little off. Im sure classicist would hate it, but it’s snapshot of the vintage scored points for me.

Tart apple and pear, delicate malo comes thru as a fuller body and clotted cream. Gorgeous.

Tart apple, slight pear…very soft little malo…hoping for more…I wanted a little more of the “fatness” of mersault, but overall delicious wine…

Color of light yellow, beautiful. Nose of saturated nutty flavors, ripe apples, citrus, pine apples, sweetness fragrance. Very distinct and in harmony. Taste of creamy nuts, salty subtle minerals, sweet fruits like citrus, apples, pineapple, mangos, not to mention it is silky and mouthful. This is a beauty from burgundy for sure. Aftertaste of salty minerals lingering on the tongue, slight hotness, and bittersweetness zest, medium long. Nice experience.
