Pale lemon yellow. The bouquet is the weightiest of the 1ers crus but what about finesse? At first the classier qualities are hidden behind or beneath the muscle, but there is plenty more to develop underneath, refreshing acidity backs up the energetic fresh pear fruit. More backward than the Genevrières, possibly not quite as detailed at this stage, but with a fine long finish and promise for the future. 93-95 Points
Narrower, more direct, fine airy citrus top notes. A shimmering width of much more mineral flavour. The finish is direct and strong – holding super well with a hint of salinity too – clearly the least ready of these – wait 3+ years I think but fine clarity and strength to this flavour.
