  Very nice nose of citrus, yellow apple and hint of mineral, the taste is very concentrated at Grand Cru level… The wine took really 30 min to increase tension and acidity, to become powerful and lasersharp…. Always a favourite in Burgundy white for me!!!

  2023 La Paulee Grand Tasting of 2020 Burgundy (Pier 60, New York): Yellow. Discrete light oak and beautiful pear fruit. Very good acidity, excellent mouth feel. Very, very good if perhaps not a top vintage of this cuvée.

  12/15/2022 - Elpaninaro Likes this wine:

  bright young yellow color, grand nose of apple, pear, brown butter and that ground coffee bean like hallmark of this particular wine, lime and mineral notes, on the palate an impressive impact- very young and primary fruit and yet it shows its arrays of delights well, apple, pear, a note of orange as well as citrus peel, savory and mousse notes, supple and substantial, sensational length with exceptional tension, long after fragrance, after a couple of hours it began to close down- so pop and pour if you try this young, as in many great vintages this will endure for many decades, but uniquely this vintage has a certain presence- notable in the grandness of the nose and the great tension on the palate- that says grand cru, it is the wine we have all come to love- but with a little extra something in what is looking to be a magnificent vintage all around at Joseph Drouhin.
