Tasting Notes

An ultra fresh and ever-so-slightly riper nose offers up primarily floral and citrus aromas where the latter element can also be found on the detailed, classy and intensely mineral-driven flavors that are wonderfully pure and infused with considerable energy, indeed there is amply underlying tension to the fine and almost delicate finish. This is certainly a wine of immense refinement but it doesn't quite have the same superb depth of its grands crus counterparts. Still, this is most impressive and also has a distinct character.
