  Crisp fresh and filled with white fruits apples and pears. Great acidity and structure and while good needs a lot more cellar time to get better. 92-94 pt

  Had at a restaurant with squash gnocchi and scallops. The nose was initially a little closed, but opened nicely showing lemon peel, orchard fruit, a bit of buttered popcorn, minerality, floral notes, and a hint of wood spice. The palate is very good and has lots of freshness, more so than I would have guessed for the vintage. Good depth and good balance. A very enjoyable wine that seems to have some development potential though I'd probably drink it earlier than later as it is delightful now.

  First bottle of Perrieres and it was quite delicious; the nose is lovely and seems quite classic to me; ripe peach, pear, apricot, a hint of baked apple, acacia and jasmine, toasted hazelnut, hints of wet stone with just a whiff of wood spice. The palate is fresh and vibrant, more so than expected for a 2015, certainly very good depth and the wine fans out over your palate, but doesn't feel fat or heavy at all; the finish lasts 30-40 seconds easily. Fabulous with king crab legs, certainly upside for a few years at least

  Nuuk weekend; 12/13/2018-12/16/2018: Yellow apple and tropical. Fine lees and very Puligny-Montrachet like. Super nice balance and length.
