Tasting Notes

Here too there is subtle but perceptible wood framing the cool, airy and exceptionally pretty nose of acacia blossom, citrus essence, spice and a hint of jasmine tea. Even though the medium weight flavors are not as dense as those of the Ruchottes, they still display focused power and a lovely sense of vibrancy that also infuses the beautifully delineated and tautly muscular finish that goes on and on. This is also very much constituted to age over the medium to longer-term, which should help to develop more depth. Note: from the Puligny side Drink: 2031+

Allen Meadows, Burghound.com (91), June 2023

A grape contract providing one barrel, using one year old wood, racked and returned. Pale lemon and lime, much less oak effect after the cleaning up. Light bacon touch to the otherwise concentrated white fruit. A little bitterness and some tension. Backward at the moment, but should be very good. Drink from 2028-2036.
