2011 vintage: Pretty damn good for a lieu dit. Served after a way more intense over-worked new world Chardonnay, the complexity and subtle power of this was both refreshing and gloriously satisfying. Brilliant pale lemon appearance; yardstick cx bouquet w hint of sulphide, oak, sexy poached white peach; xlnt vif on entry, racy savoury mid palate w a hint of salinity with its textured white stone fruit flavours. Long, delicious. Just YUM!
(Meant to mention this Lieu Dit is right near all the Grand Crus )
