This is finally drinking.

Nose: fleeting endless white flowers. Deep. Dense. Endless. Liquid white flowers. Insane.

Palate: a perfectness. Silky. A touch of richness. A presence. Magnificent. Reverberates.

A perfectness about this. A gleaming golden harmony that transcends any tasting note and exceeds the limits of language. .

Sacre Bleu ! I had this with a hamburger. Now a proper hamburger. Salted through and through. Mixed with sautéed shallots. Cloth bound cheddar. Brioche bun. A dab of chutney. NO ketchup (vinegar and wine dont mix). Basically a burger that the French would make if they didn’t consistently fuck up burgers. And make them with shite French beef.

Nose: dusty in the best way possible Deep. Dark. Almost gothic. Al elegant brambriness as it opens.

Palate: dense dark blackberry fruit. Blackberry liquor. Delicious. Almost chewy. Fresh though.

The perfect wine for beef on a Monday. A proper burger. Steak au poivre. Bloody duck.

This is a solid 93. But a gorgeous 93 with the right food. It’s shows the breadth of Burgundy.

Nose: intensely mineral. Hints of green apple. Lemon oil. Lifting. White and yellow flowers. There is a purity. An elegance. For me pushes it over the 9.5 bump. Gets to the first tier of profound.

Palate: silky lemon oil. Terrific density. Delicious.

An unknown elite wine. Stock up. A wine to share with geeks.

Is there a better non burg rhone Germany still white?
