Blessed to have generous friends. '14 Montrachet started open and full bodied and actually got leaner and more focused with air. Had this wonderful menthol/flint, citrus/lemon thing going that was complemented by a honey/pineapple/ginger flavor, which reminded me of botrytis. After some searching, it sounds like Prieur enjoys a bit in his wines. Salty finish. Excellent stuff that has a ton of life left.

A restrained nose with wood poking out but not intruding. For Montrachet I found the palate to be on the lighter side but with excellent concentration and persistence.
