With friends at La Trompette. A mid yellow colour, young looking (people guessed 11). Some reductive popcorn remaining on the nose but faded to show rich citrus and slightly oily orange peel and strong minerality against the rich background. Quite CdN in character to my taste. I really enjoyed this, will wait a few years for next one as this will keep well ****

From magnum. Curious smoke and woodnotes on the backnose of this bottle. Somewhat disjointed on the palate with offputting, if not overly strong, residual wood. 87-

Role Reversal Lunch at La Paulée-Dujac Whites (Monts-Luisants) and Lafon Reds (Quince, San Francisco): Magnum. Medium yellow. More deeply pitched aromatics with faint orange peel in the background (there it is again!). Richer, more sucrosity than others with predominant citrus early and then some pineapple later. The acidity seems a bit low at first but asserts itself as the wine opens. Excellent roundness and length. Although it is not one of my favorites of the flight, so much better balanced than many bigger name 2006 white Burgundies.

(Domaine Dujac Morey-Saint-Denis Les Monts Luisants, Burgundy, France) Dujac doesn’t produce a lot of white wine, but perhaps it should make more. The grapes for this bottling come from a small holding (a little more than an acre) in the Côte de Nuits premier cru vineyard of Mont Luisants. There’s a wonderful intensity and yet a grace to this Burgundy, accented by balanced oak, strong minerality, and a lengthy finish. As in any great wine, every sip becomes more fascinating.

Developing great, medium gold color, heady nose of hazelnut / oils / chardonnay fruit and herbal elements. Great balanced refreshing palate.
