Some reduction took a little time to blow off. Once it cleared, there was clear white to yellow orchard fruit on the nose and a pure, coiled fruit impression on the mid palate, gripping and leading into a focused finish. No signs of premox on this bottle. Opened side by side with the 2017 Boillot Pucelles, and that showed slightly advanced with less mid palate energy.

From 375mL. Deeper yellow to light golden, appropriate color for young white burgundy; moderate intensity aromatics, cream, slight vanilla, white fruits, slight floral; palate is richly textured, medium-plus acidity throughout, oak is integrating, excellent depth and complexity, some citrus oil; long finish. Excellent quality, top tier 1er cru (unfortunately priced as such), drinking well now but will likely age well for a few more years. With some other notes suggesting some pre-mox (though no hint in this half bottle), I might drink up my remaining over the next couple of years. 93 3 hours air: Slightly improved after 30-60 minutes, and then held steady throughout. Lovely white burgundy. The magic may come with substantially more age, but can I trust it to last that long?

Très bien, assez évolué pour le millésime par contre avec des amers en finale un peu dérangeants mais à peine.
