Chalky, white flowers on the nose, this was definitely "bigger" than the Ramonet St. Aubin, with more intensity (compactness) and fruit-weight on the palate. Good balance of minerality, tension and freshness. Very good, although I can't seem to comprehend the astronomical price it goes for these days...

Fu's Juge traveling road show (Clovis Ca.): Interesting as this was tight and lighter than expected...very clean and chiseled, bright and more youthful than its age. Intense citrus with some nice mineral chalk, flint, stone fruits, chive...reminded me of a watered down pycm puligny. Though, as it warmed in the glass, it did gain in weight and richness...pretty florals and a nice elegance. Intrigued to see what the leftovers will bring...but not what I expected at this price point.

Classic Puligny. Great bones, structure in harmony with classic stone fruit and lemon curd. Wonderful nose of kaffir lime and minerality. Need to find more!!

(Arnaud Ente Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Referts) Medium yellow color; lovely, focused, light lemon nose; tasty but young and tight lemon, vanilla palate, clean and pure with good acidity; medium finish

nose - butterscotch
mouth - rich, butterscotch, sappy but still with a hint of lemon to add freshness
