90 Points

Saturday, December 16, 2017 - I think the latest tasting notes on this one says it all.
This is really impressing for being "just" a Bourgogne Blanc. Less oak than the other bottlings but the Sauzet style shines through.

The nose was a bit muted upon opening and needed some 30 minutes to really open up. It shows aromas of bruised yellow apple, lemon zest, citrus oil, buttered nuts, honey comb, fresh herbs, crushed rock and sea breeze.

Rather dense and concentrated on the palate with ripping high acidity and medium(-) body. It's hard to put down in words but there's something with the structure of this wine that really gets me going. More fatty nuttiness coming through on the palate with baked yellow apple, citrus oil and creamy lees notes. Long, lingering nutty finish.

Starting to hit the zone right now but I wouldn't mind hold these ones for another year or two.
