Lots of ripe apples, peaches, brioche, yeast, white pepper and bread dough. Mustard flowers, too. Full-bodied, yet so energetic and intense. So much going on. Subtle and intense. Light nuts and spices. Fine and angular with so much tension. Tight at the end. Mineral and iodine, too. Weightless on the palate. Better in a year or two, but already really excellent. 80% pinot noir and 20% chardonnay. One for the cellar.
Deep gold. Not yet released but bursting with energy and interest. I'd very happily drink this now. There is real structure to this wine. Edgy but satisfying, and should probably appeal to a wider range of wine drinkers than the defiantly oak-influenced Argonne. Really very fine. 2021 - 2028
