Opened this 2 years after the last one and it developed well: ripe fruit, lemon, iodine, high density, a kind of oily texture, good length, now in its drinking window. This vineyard sits beside les Preuses and Fèvre consider it as their „baby“ Grand Cru. Excellent and tonight clearly on Grand Cru Level.

Clear step down from the ‘10 Valmur. Lemon oil, some zest, fruitiness starting to fade a bit, crisp and smooth, lacking any real distinctive character though. Good not great.

Light lemon yellow. This is still quite austere. Needs a long decant. Lemon oil, salt and quinine on the finish. Clearly very good but it needs more time. Glad I have more.

Tasted over 2 hrs -translucent light-med gold green -a little reduction funk mingles with sea breeze and faint wood -med+ acidity, med/med- weight super sappy rocky minerality with a bitter grapefruit note, clean and long finish -very good now in the intermediate phase where the fruit has faded but not overtly mature either
