Creme brûlée, peach, lemon curd and vanilla on the nose. Well balanced with notes of lemon curd, pineapple and peach.

Great friends and coworkers share great wine with you when your birthday happens to fall during a time of crisis. These wines are expensive little gems but so delicious ... exactly what you want from ageworthy white burgundy — ripe orchard fruit and hay and definitely some butterscotch!  I would love to taste this wine again in 10 years!

Mother Mary of God! It’s a stunning example of why I adore White Burgundy.

The nose reveals; Meyer lemon, Granny Smith apples, pineapple, lime zest, stone fruit, under ripe green melon, beeswax, honeysuckle, touch of caramel, fruit blossoms, river stones, cream for days, gentle white spice, powdery limestone & brilliant, soft gentle chalkiness, steely minerals, some flintiness with jasmine, mixed greens, yellow lilies and spring flowers.

The body is full, rich, lush and waxy. It’s simply stunning as it glides over the palate. It just doesn’t get much better in White Burgundy unless you spend seriously more money. Meyer lemon, Granny Smith apples, pineapple, lime zest, stone fruit, under ripe green melon, kiwi, bruised Bosc pear, beeswax, honeysuckle, vanillin notes, touch of caramel, fruit blossoms, river stones, cream for days, butter, gentle white spice with soft, warm heat, herbaceous, powdery limestone & brilliant, soft gentle chalkiness, steely minerals, some flintiness with jasmine, mixed greens, yellow lilies and spring flowers. The phat, round acidity is like a warm, gentle rain shower. The rich, lush, ripe, polished, well balanced finish is delicious and persists several minutes.

PYCM is a beast. The density in his wines is never at the betrayal of acidity. I love the way his wines feel, it's hard to keep my hands off them. His 2013's seem rich for the vintage, powerful yet with such cut. White flowers, dark rocky spice, citrus candy, ginger, lemongrass, powdery almonds, cereal dust. Love to see this in 20 years

2012: Strong first impression. Good acidity, showing promise for aging. Solid, with good depth. Long finish kept drawing me back.

Fleshy, rich and bordering on decadent, this is a huge wine, with toasty oak, ripe tropical fruit and acidity for balance. I could drink this on a daily basis...
