Grands Echezeaux: Served blind. Classical in comparison to the previous two wines ('95 Kalin CH and '99 Bouchard Montrachet), more tension and acidity. Slight oak on the finish, and chalky minerality becomes quite prominent with air.

All coming together now.... Vibrant and energized. Transparent and intense nose of stone fruit and white flowers, then developing tones of honeycomb and marzipan. Clean and vibrant palette wrapped with an underlying integrated mineral backbone with a sensual lengthy finish. This wine went through an awkward closed phase a few years back but is firing on all cylinders now.... A very very fine MP from Boillot... Among his best!

Really really tight and not giving at all (especially compared to the Puligny Moucheres) but the underlying material is excellent....
