Tasting Notes

This too is quite floral in character with plenty of citrus nuances to the mostly green apple scents. There is once again fine density and volume to the attractively textured medium-bodied flavors thanks to the nicely abundant dry extract that coats the palate on the solidly long finish. This is surprisingly good for young vines and while it's not quite as complex as the Puligny villages, it may well catch up with a few years of bottle age.
