  White Burgundy theme at Min Jiang: Thought this showed quite similarly to the O. Leflaive with a creamy texture and citrus fruit so I guessed 2014 Puligny. Well-integrated at this stage save for a slight sweetness on the finish. I love Drouhin’s reds but should seek out their whites too, they are decidedly old-school in the rounder style without being too heavy.

  Clear, no sediment or crystallization. Medium gold in color. Clean nose. Surprised by the exuberant tropical nose. Notes of mango, papaya and pineapple are evident. Also, wet stones, toast, honey, and hay. It feels as if it is from a ripe vintage but it is very dry on the palate. Acidity is medium, alcohol is medium as well. It is full bodied with medium plus intensity. It is viscous and coats your palate easily. There are flavors of flowers, steel and honey. The finish is long and drying.
  
  You can definitely feel the pedigree of this wine. Maybe without the elegance and finesse of Puligny but certainly with all the pomp and flamboyance of Chassagne.
  
  Bought on release. At the winery in Beaune.

  Very pale yellow with a restrained nose at first (served too cold?) which opened up in the glass to floral aromas initially. Rapidly evolves to white and yellow fruit - pears, a whiff of Alphonso mango and a bit of spice. Clean palate with a sinewy texture that emphasised the underlying mineral-infused tension. A lovely wine - fruits, minerals, spice and serious freshness and length. Chatting earlier with a friend and we both agreed that Drouhin tends to massively outperform it's price point. Loved this bottle.

  Fresh and vibrant with sharp acidity. Palate was slightly lean with good citrus and minerals. Its ready to drink now.
