May 19, 2023 - Non-blinded. This came after the ‘08 Lafon Perrieres & the ‘16 Drouhin Monty. Golden-yellow in color, with a slightly darker hue than the Perrieres. Goodness, these 3 whites were all stupendous. This BBM nosed of white flowers & tropical fruits. Nice weight & roundness (but no where fat; excellent freshness) in the mouth, with a buttery/waxy texture and a deeper pitch than the Monty. Most delicious!
