@Delectable Wine - This is the 1er Cru Les Menetrieres. It’s a softer, gentler rendition. Really nice nose has lots of subtleties. Pear skin fruit, wet clay, butter, straw, bitter honey, meadow flowers. In the mouth, it’s very softly textured, and has flavors on the lower range of the spectrum, with clay and stone minerality leading the way. There is also some apple/ pear fruit. The acids are a little lower and less forceful than I expected for a ‘21. Very nice wine. Drink over the next year or two.
