One of my favorite Burgundian producers. I have to say, the 2012 vintage of this was more bright and in your face with the acidity.. this year however, is MUCH more elegant and Montrachet like. Subtle touches of Oak and Malo, light raw almond and hazelnut tones on nose and pallet, with supple acidity and creamy textures. Golden apple, mandarin orange, lemon juice, crushed rock, crema, butter, raw almond, toasted hazelnut. Absolutely delicious.

Fantastic buy. Aromas of grass, green veggies abound: asparagus, and green bell pepper. Hints of lime, salt, and lemon. Very rounded balance between just the right amount of acidity and citrus on the palate. Great minerality. Almost golden in color. 13%
