Pale yellow in the glass with a greenish hue. Scents of vanilla spice, chocolate and nougat coming out of the glass. As the wine warmed up in with air, it became distinctly more minerally on the nose with hints of rust and wet iron. Oily, dense, fat and chewy in the mouth with wonderful levels of glycerin. Superb concentration of flavours with a lemon peel mixed with vanilla and butter note to it, coupled with excellent definition, structure and precision. Good complexity and a warm, long aftertaste. In spite of the adjectives used here, the note isn't supposed to hint at a new world style Chardonnay. This wine was classic.

Light yellow appearance. Smells like a Grand Cru popcicle. Wonderfully dense and lushious texture. Well defined and structured fruit, coupled with gentle nuances and a delicate, elegant taste. Well structured and long on the finish.

Another Oxidized bottle of what should be stellar white Burgundy

Ample dried seepage under the capsule. Oxidized, almost maderized.
