April 20, 2024 - Un bianco superlativo, incontenibile nelle sue mille sfumature eppure così delicato. Momento eccellente per gustarlo, colore dorato lucente, naso multiforme e cangiante: comincia con un mazzo di fiori gialli appena raccolti, prosegue su un frutto maturo, cedro candito, mela cotta, si sposta su un mix di curcuma e zafferano. Il giorno dopo la melodia è fatta di erbe balsamiche e una spruzzata rinfrescante di anice.
La bocca è suadente, ancora fresca, nessun segno di stanchezza, nessuna traccia di ossidazione, solo persistenza e perfezione. Vino clamoroso, uno dei migliori bianchi degli ultimi anni. Che manico Sauzet, bravissimo.1 person found this helpful Comment -

March 9, 2024 - Grand Cru White Burgundy Fest: Bright and young. Less tension than the 04 Leflaive, but no less energy. Very surprising to have such a great showing from this producer from this time period.

January 20, 2023 - Stunningly intense yet elegant body. Good length. Nothing exaggerated just a great Chevy.
