Tasting Notes

Very mild reduction and a touch of sulfur detract from the appeal of the otherwise pretty aromas of acacia blossom, spiced pear and white peach scents. The delicious, muscular and pure broad-shouldered and powerful flavors are bigger than those of the Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet while possessing an almost painfully intense palate impression that continues onto the concentrated and impressively persistent if compact finish. This is somewhat youthfully awkward and rather hard to read yet the underlying material is so good that it seems reasonably clear that this should be very good to excellent in time.
