  Bormes-Le Lavandou Summer holidays 2023-This botlle showed a bit more ripeness with a whiff of cocoa; again great, super elegant, very refined and with a superb aftertaste. I have already asked for a dozen of the '22.

  You may think I'm crazy, but this bottle was mind boggling. With all the qualities I have described in previous notes this bottle showed also a terrific good and ripe citrus/acidity with a pure raspberry smell and taste that gave, in combination with all its qualities, a very long and pure finish; Vosne 1er Cru level?

  And again (see my previous notes) 92 points; this bottle showed a whiff of mocha/cocoa combined with the bitters, maybe suggesting a tad more development. I can't wait to taste the '22.

  Second bottle from a full case purchased from the Dutch importer in 2022. En Lutenière is a flat climat east of the RN74 on heavier soils and as such it does well in warm vintages. This rendition by Aurélien Verdet walks the tightrope of the 2020 vintage very successfully. The fruit is ripe and has a relatively dark pitch, but the aromas are fresh and floral with a hint of Asian spice, the palate is silky and harmonious, weight (13% ABV) and balance are perfect, the texture is silky and mild tannins provide gentle frip, the finish has a touch of green apple and good to very good length. Drink now - 2028. Excellent value for money.
