Always the class of the 1er cru at Dampt and man is this a smoker. Gorgeous nose of pear, apple, intense salty iodine, gorgeous ocean air, confectionary minerality. Palate is superb with wonderful texture and richness and lovely crunch. So clean and pure with racy acidity and freshness and awesome explosiveness. Concentrated and balanced with a long salty finish with terrific crunch and texture. So pure and ripe but with just insane freshens. So long and persistent. A star.

Palate has freshly juiced lemon mixed into your water glass, lemon pith, white flowers, wet limestone chips, salted lemon slice, mineral water and baked green apple.
Great acidity, medium finish, great texture, still so young, will concentrate. Drink 2026-30+.
