Double decanted 8 hours prior to serving. It has good dose of grapefruit, citrus fruits and minerality on the palate. For now, 2010 Arnaud Ente Bourgogne Blanc tastes far better and more ready.

Neuf bouteilles pour trois: Un arrière goût de liège léger, mais tenace, empêche de profiter entièrement du vin, qui offre une matière digne d'un premier cru beaunois. L'équilibre et les saveurs ont l'air belles, mais difficile de faire abstraction du bouchon, hélas.

First of three. Perfect condition. White flowers on the nose with spice, dry extract and great length on the palate. Wow. So good.
Compared with a 2019 Pierre Boisson Bourgogne Murgey de Limozin, one of my favorites. The Ente is linear and focused with good length; the Boisson, while very good, is broad, rich with almost a little umami (!) in comparison. No doubt the Ente is better. That said, they are so close it’s hard to justify current Wine-Searcher pricing of $414 vs $60.
On followup about 3 hours in, the Ente has fallen apart a bit. So, if you open, drink up!

Beautiful reduction on the nose, but quite corked.

Zippy and elegant, this is a superb example of new-school White Bourgogne. Quality is great; pricing has gone stupid for this wine.
