"One of the greatest wines of Burgundy, to be tasted with awe and reverence. It has an intense golden hue. On the nose, there are some subtle tones of rose, fresh almond, citrus, honey, exotic wood and spice. Majestic and well balanced on the palate. Generous and lively at the same time. Intense and complex aftertaste. All the aromas mingle and linger for quite a long time afterwards. A wine of undeniable majesty."

- Joseph Drouhin

Stunning nose of flint, grapefruit pith, jasmine, white tea, white peaches and acacia honey. Praline and salted almonds. While powerful, it’s agile and sleek, sophisticated, with a medium to full body and everything so well integrated. Keeps going. Try after 2024.

There is just enough wood setting off the cool and attractively layered nose of violet, green apple, spice and mineral reduction to warrant pointing out. There is excellent concentration to the quite powerful larger-scaled flavors that conclude in a linear, citrusy and chiseled finish that flashes superb length. This is extremely promising though here again, patience strongly recommended.
