Delightful bottle. Rich but with excellent balance. Young but still approachable and giving. Was worried about this being one of the dodgy 2016 whites, but knew on tasting it that this was one of the good ones. Glad I put this into a wonderful tasting of Marechales rouge that included Mugnier's 2008,2009,2010,2012, 2015 and 2020 (and Faiveley's 1993 rendition also). All sound bottles showing well!

Light, airy, balanced and super fresh. Light yellow color. Lemon, lemon peel, apples, orchard fruit, moderate spice and good acidity. 16 was a disaster year weather wise and this a victory for sure.

SLDS August 2019: Melon, spice and peach on the nose. Palate shows a touch of heat on the finish, but the ripe fruits give it some pleasure now. May settle with time.

Medium yellow. Ripe apple nose (some Pinot Blanc here?). Generous, moderate oak, clean back end with fine acidity and some sense of soil.
