Robe dorée.
Magnifique nez précis et immédiatement cause, compromis de belles notes florales et de coing rôti d'une grande fraîcheur.
Bouche magnifique d'équilibre, à la fois pleine et ample, sur une sucrosité croquante sans aucun poids sur le palais, portée par une acidité fraîche parfaitement intégrée.
Finale précise et scintillante, d'une complexité de goûts absolument délicieuse !
Magnifique vin, parfaitement à point -

January 26, 2019 - 3rd Annual Jadot with Frederic Barnier (Booth One - Chicago, IL): And now for something completely different ... Botrytisized sweet wine from Burgundy!? Served blind, I was leaning towards Chenin given the flavor profile and acid brightness. Plenty of honey and sweet white fruits, with good lift. Very nicely done.

January 26, 2019 - Louis Jadot Dinner with Frédéric Barnier (Booth One - Chicago IL): Botrytis intensive with very good density and complexity. Lots to enjoy here, with plenty of ability to drink well for decades going forward. From 375 ml bottle.

Superbe! Robe dorée, brillante, jus épais, dense et limpide, Nez complexe et précis, complexe a souhait, oh oh cela s'annonce bien...
Les effluves qui jaillissent du verre évoquent tour a tour un Riesling en SGN, un sauternes, voire un Condrieu en VT: citron confit, fleurs blanches, abricot, épices douce, bergamote, thé, puis yuzu, mandarine, le botritys s'exprime a merveille, sans le côté champignon ou truffe de certains vieux chardonnay, c'est très pur, tres propre, j'adore!
En bouche, la richesse est tenue par une superbe fraicheur (difficile d'évaluer son taux de sucre: 120/130g? plus?, de sorte que le vin n'a rien de lourd ou pâteux, il s'avère complexe, long, gourmand et par sa fine personnalité dans le registre sucré, vraiment... très très bon! -
