Feeling fortunate to be able to find this spectacular bottling without having to travel to France. To no surprise, 2020 Blanchot Dessus, one of the best 1er cru sites in the biz, is a jaw dropper tonight, a simply stunning young wine that wafts from the glass with captivating aromatics of yellow orchard fruit, citrus oils, white flowers and baking spice. Its full bodied and textural palate offers tremendous depth, density, racy lemony acids and a finish that just stays with you. This is as close to Grand Cru Montrachet as it gets.

Biggest surprise in this tasting for me. Tons of minerality paired with a great acid, just a hint of oak and a nice freshness. Promising showing.
