Nose is a combo of lovely sweaty earthiness, a hint of butter and incredible minerality. Some wild mint and also baking spices. Terrific complexity. Palate is so focused and so rich yet racy as racy can be with exhilarating acid and minerality. Bousey is just so good. Quiet guy and goes about his business and never fails to impress. Long finish that gets to every nook and cranny. So juicy and teeming with energy and endless depth. Fruit is so focused and oak treatment is masterful. Almost a 9.5. — 2 months ago

Typé Meursault, beurré légèrement, du fruit blanc, un vin avec un bel équilibre entre cette richesse et cette générosité tout en ayant une acidité bien dosée, belle longueur. 91-92

Very typical nose and palate, nice balance and edging more towards fullness and richness but with enough acidity to support it, great length too. Love it. — 2 years ago

Less delightful than last bottle. Came out quite dark yellow relative expectations and oxidated.

Pairing confused the tasting but couldn’t help get some serious acidity and tartness. Some apple notes and not the bright lemon sunshine. This was limey. — 2 years ago

Pretty typical tasting Chardonnay. Nice balance, the oak isn’t overpowering. Tastes of apple, almond, and vanilla. Nice and enjoyable, but not something I would chase down. — 6 months ago

Very refined with mellow citrus and mild acidity. Would recommend as an aperitif - it might be too subtle for food. — 3 years ago

9.2

Lovely aromas of cherry, minerals (limestone) cherry flower and some hints of red licorice. Very bright nose and very lifted. Palate is juicy and acid driven with terrific energy and wonderful driving minerality. Slight reductive funk on the nose blows off very quickly. A pretty wine and drinking well now. Very tangy and fresh with pretty tannins that are ripe. Like many 17’s this is gorgeously skinny. — 2 years ago

Ripe style, but maintains a ton of freshness for a rich, tasty drink, apricot and honey. — 2 years ago
