Community Tasting Note

Monday, July 19, 2021 - There is certainly Grand Cru intensity and power here, with lemon everything exploding in the mouth; limeade, lemon juice, lemontini, honeydew, and crunchy pear notes parade across the palate with determination. A kick of perceptible alcohol finishes off the attack.

A lot of front-end unloading here, with finesse and focus taking a bit of a back seat to all of the right-now and all-at-once potency. A little brash and unresolved, leaving the flavor expansion slightly angular. Some of the ‘19 Droin 1er Crus currently carry more suaveness.

Hold the Valmur for 5+ years. Sealed with DIAM 10. 91-93+? points, assuming it can resolve its boxy demeanor.
