  8/17/2013 - kosmik Likes this wine: 90 Points

  13% d'alcool, 100% Chardonnay
  Oeil : paille légèrement doré, viscosité moyenne+ en parois
  Nez : projection d'intensité 3/10, frais, délicat, fruité élégant rappelant l'abricot et la pêche de vigne, touche de miel frais, quelques accents lactés et de tarte au citron, citron frais et citron confit, pâte sablée, beurre salé, touche minérale... très élégant et très invitant dans l'ensemble
  Bouche : sec, ample, acidité moyenne+, amertume moyenne+, persistance moyenne-longue, très bel équilibre d'ensemble, rétro fruitée, miellée, beurrée, amère, minérale
  Conclusion : une belle surprise. Il n'a pas tout dévoilé à l'ouverture et s'est bonifié avec l'aération. Très bel équilibre, et ce, tant lorsque froid, frais que tempéré, soit un équilibre général que nous apprécions beaucoup. Pas un blockbuster fait pour plaire à tous et chacun et sans égards, mais plutôt un excellent vin en élégance et possiblement à son apogée en ce moment. Peut-être pas le plus grand Meursault, mais à ce moment-ci de son évolution, il mérite 89-90.

  As the last bottle - the wine had character - citrus nose and fruit - not sharp as I had anticipated , probably remembering the first bottle. Very acceptable

  Burgundy in Burgundy - the good, the bad and the truly revolting; 9/13/2010-9/20/2010: Shy and retiring, the gentle oak-lemon-SO2 scent went AWOL at the first sight of food. But impeccable balance on the palate (more lemon...) Short finish. Would never have guessed this blind as a Meursault - no butter... all that lemon... 87P

  Pale straw colour , quite strong citrus nose, full citrus fruit flavour and strong tingly aftertaste, overall considerably more enthusiastic about this bottle than the last. This is a bottle to enjoy slowly with friends

  Very pleasant. Typical Meursault, perhaps not the strongest flavour but very acceptable
