The nose expressed honeysuckle, citrus, caramelized yellow fruit, dried tropical extract, and minerals. Lots of acidity and minerality. Rich, round and fat. A classic BBM. Girardin nailed this vintage.

Really outstanding nose of smoke, flint, white flowers and citrus. Full, rich and round in the mouth. Love the mineral note against the fatness. Long finish.

while not quite as good as the 06 batard from the same producer this is still an excellent wine. lovely rich wine with plenty of structure that should keep it going for many years

everyone loved this, rich creamy sweet lemons, honey and caramel... rich and big but with a nice acidity profile still hanging in... very very good, some oak but not overwhelming
