Love fichet and this was my first experience with their Bourgogne blanc. Plays with their big boy mersaults for sure.
Would be interested to see which vineyards / parcels go into this puppy. Damn good!

Nose has crushed flint, sliced lemon, mild oak notes, ripe white peach and toasted Italian bread.

Palate has creamy (ripe) tropical fruits, medium oak, dried lemon with medium acidity.

Declassified Meursault? In a nice spot, but probably suggest drinking the 14's on this bottle in the next few years 2023-25.

Pure, clear and chiseled style. Salty lemon curd, white peach with a hint of toasted hazelnut. Very fresh with with bright fruit and shimmering minerality.

Punches above its weight class, especially in a small, tight glass.
