93 Points

Saturday, March 17, 2012 - shared with pat at selkirk manor as a pre-vacation treat. i have finally found a white burgundy that i thoroughly enjoyed and can readily justify suspending my qpr rules by spending more than $50 to break the magical 90 point barrier. " how do i love thee, let me count the ways". this has everything that i look for in a wine. aroma, layered flavors of fruit and minerality, body, length, width, long finish. looking over tasting notes of others, the variety of descriptors is a testament to the complexity of this wine. my limited palate picks up apple, pear, honey and walnuts. waldorf salad without the lettuce. a great wine. this may be the only occasion that i score higher than the pros, perhaps due to benefits of additional time in bottle. i am also extending estimated longevity by one year based on this tasting. i now have a new adventure to discover other wines from this producer or this region that will offer as much pleasure as was afforded by this bottle.
