Community Tasting Note

thewiz Likes this wine:

Tuesday, July 28, 2020 - (Disgorged in December 2015, 100% Chardonnay from three aged parcels in Les Chétillons in Le Mesnil sur Oger, dosage 5,5 gr/l)
Still showing a light yellow colour with a lovely greenish hue after so many years. And the nose, filled with layers of cream, minerals and butterscotch at first and opens up with more maturity of dark chocolate and acacia honey as well. Smoothing citrus acidity on the palate also showing chocolate and acacia honey sweetness before a beautiful lime zest bitterness on the lengthy finish makes for perfection as the smooth butterscotch notes takes over on the tongue.
This is already filled with power and intensity and at the same time it feels as if it will last for ever.. I feel no rush to open my next bottle, that is for sure!
(Best 2017-2042)
