Noticeable oak. A hint of lime. Loads of zest and drive. Exhilarating. Dynamic and delicious.

This is pretty wow. Still quite primary with oak and sulfur, beautiful intense lifted lemony fruit with a backbone of minerality. Intense, exciting and long. Years ahead.

not to the 14 or 17 level but still outstanding. Love this relatively new to Ramonet bottling.

14, first vintage of this Chassagne monopole I’ve seen chez Ramonet, just killed it, so I had to uncork a 17. Light color, nose and palate redolent of citrus and white flowers, it’s a bit leaner than 14 but a very nice quaff after a tough week. Hopefully it’ll gain a bit of density with some time in the cellar but it’s a pretty wine now. Love Ramonet.

Ramonet just killed it in 14 and the wines drink great already. This is new in their stable and a great, great addition.

A lot going on. Candied fruit, crepe brûlée and marzipan. This has real power.
