So so young right now. Intense reduction on the nose that took almost 24 hrs to blow off. Much better on day 2. This wine will be very long lived.

Oddly pale yellow color rather close to Rhône wines than Burgundy. On the nose we feel the pot (although I'm not personally a user!) So we have more floral nose than citrus. On the palate a lot of gravity, I would not say it's American style and not Rhône type either it was new to me. But after my first sip I really did not have the reflex to return a second time. Seeing the price I was stunned .... I do not understand anything.
