nice bright colour, big ripe 2009 nose - lots of apricots and ripe fruit, then good cut of grapefruity, citrus acidity, long with good extract. this is more like a good Meursault than a humble HCdeN..! and I suspect it may still be on the young side and improve as the fruit and acidity soften together. 90+

Light yellow in color, very fresh nose with high quality oak of smokiness, marzipan and a bit of meringue. Medium to light body with good acidity, unable to tell it is a 09 white, long wet rock finish. A very elegant white, full of finesse that belies the vintage and appellation.

Ficofi bottling. Rich with good fruit and balance. Pedigree shows.
