Antoine Jobard/Hudelot-Noëllat Dinner at La Paulée de Los Angeles (Kato, Los Angeles): Deeply colored. Low pitched bitter citrus scents. Medium weight, sappy. Beautiful mix of complex fruit (pear and citrus), soil, and discrete oak. Crisper with more tart acidity than the ‘15, and overall a much more successful warm year wine. Outstanding, and it must be at or close to peak. The finish is touched by a little drying astringency from the wood.

During the La Paulée in Zurich, so no detailed tasting notes. Great energy here, mineralic, flinty.

Deep yellow if not golden, good depth and full body.Very good indeed and drinking near it's apex.I would be surprised if it improved much from here.
