98 Points

Saturday, June 7, 2014 - La Tache dinner (The Boardl Room at Capella Hotel Georgetown): I sourced a couple dozen top white Burgundies from a cold and damp European cellar about ten years ago and all the bottles have been stellar. Very youthful color. Ripe yet cool nose displaying lovely yellow pit fruits, smoke, oyster shell, licorice, oyster brine, a hint of light honey and mint. Beautiful harmonious palate, fruit, acidity and mineral expression have come together beautifully, ie starts with generous ripe fruit transitions to lovely mineral expression then a hint of acidity that lifts up the overall expression and ending in lovely seamless finish. A great example of the 92 GC white Burgundy, combining opulence and precision.
