Monday blinds (Chicago, IL): Served double blind. Even though this was obviously white Burgundy, I thought that this was a little younger than it was. The nose has some confected lime flavours (Pop Rocks?), as well as a nice touch of reduction. White fruit, good acidity, and crisp, with only a modest amount of fruit. I thought that this was 2013 chablis.

Acid is the primary character. Maybe it's in a bit of a hole at the moment. It was often enjoyed a bit younger. A bit left in decanter next day was pretty rugged. Still have a few bottles. Will consider if a few years will help or hinder.

Absolutely delightful. Fresh and fruity. Acidity is totally mastered. Highly recommended.

Amazing value. This is real Burgundy, like one of the top producers making delicious wines from rough terroirs. Will buy more.
