The last and the best of my three bottles. What a glorious bargain this was! This has the same golden, fairly advanced color, but the palate here is very fresh and precise. Butterscotch, quince with prickly minerality on a long finish. No reason to hold my longer, I'd drink this sooner rather than later.

The joy of white burg gambling! Much better bottle than my last one, which in retrospect had premox issues. This is super fresh and energetic, showing some well balanced oak with a lot of vegetal notes (green pepper, spicy radishes). Nice length and mid palate weight. Shows why at the right discount aged white burgs are worth the gamble. 90+
