A glowing light golden hue. On the nose, rich ripe white orchard fruit and some tropical notes I associate with Roulot. Developing some hazelnut and spice as well. Very open right now. A touch of brown butter as well. On the palate, this is clean, energetic and balanced. Ripe orchard fruit, apple, pear, citrus flavors. Wonderful texture with integrated grip and acidity. Good energy along a lovely and mineral driven finish. Does not have the weight of his more prestigious wines, but has every bit of the class and focus in the glass. This is quite impressive in what I typically think is a difficult white burgundy year. Punches well above its classification.

nose - of churned butter (as it warms) mouth - light peach but really tastes mostly like milk powder. a bit anemic on the fruit and I must say that I enjoyed the 2020 version of this wine considerably more. However it was an amazing paring for the salted dates.

Pale; tight, reductive; hard edge, rather shrill; rigid finish. Best drunk up.

This one is definitely starting to show its age. Rich rich, and full flavor. Nutty, baked, apple, and pears. And definitely slowing down and it’s age.
