A funky nose of undergrowth, steely sweet herbal funk and lean orchard fruits. Good ripeness with nice acidity. Fully mature, should be consumed sooner than later. Initially guessed Puligny Montrachet but the steely minerals reminded me of Domaine de la Vougeraie 1er Cru Clos Blanc de Vougeot? 1993? (84/100)

Served blind - I did guess the vintage correctly. Peculiar nose - bit cheesy, salty, stealthy. Certainly mature. A food wine which went really well with foie gras but wouldn't be a wine I feel is enjoyable by itself.
