  This was decanted for 2.5 hours which was absolutely necessary. Then this was an inviting, extremely well balanced and polished wine with a long finish. If this is decanted, it’s certainly in its prime with a decade left of prime drinking.

  Tasted over 3 hrs
  -translucent light gold-green
  -lovely algae funk sea breeze
  -med acidity, med weight mineral reduction and straight-forward fading citrus
  -very pleasant but lacking the fireworks complexity and sappy intensity this cuvée usually provides, maybe a slightly off bottle?

  Le bouchon est long à sortir ! Il est d'une longueur exceptionnelle.
  
  Or très pâle aux reflets de verdure.
  
  Surpris par l'intensité du nez dès l'ouverture:
  Les notes de vanille, d'anis et de miel survolent un fond que nous ne parvenons pas à décrire (mentholé?).
  Plusieurs ont eu le nez scotché au verre sans dire un mot.
  
  Carafé deux heures.
  À l'attaque on reconnaît surtout la lime qui est suivi par le pamplemousse.
  
  La bouche est d'une pureté incomparable, et laisse une impression d'eau minérale
  qui se prolonge sur une finale saline et étonnamment persistante.
  
  Nous l'avons dégusté encore très jeune,
  car il fallait l'ouvrir pendant que ceux qu'on aime sont toujours là... ;-)
  (En particulier, La Reine Du Chablis )
  
  Mais nul doute:
  On cogne à la porte d'un grand vin. Et la porte s'ouvrira d'ici 3 à 4 ans.
  
  (****) voire (****+)

  Still pretty spun up and primary. Linear shots of green apple skin don’t expand much into anything especially deep or complex. This is a high quality, pure, and refreshing wine in its current state, but it needs 3-5 years to gain a true personality. Sealed by DIAM 10, so patience will reward.
