Saline and marine notes on the nose. Wonderful fruit and minerality that goes on and on, and remains on the palate for a long time. Using the cliche, I want to say that this is grand cru quality, but I don't know of a 2006 grand cru white Burgundy that is this good. Exceptional wine and worth pursuing if you don't mind the price tag.

V flamboyant from the start, popcorn sulphur and orchard fruit. The palate is explosive, ripe stone fruit, lots of minerals and brioche. Quite upfront but will be even better with age.

Pnp. This is the best 06 white burg that I have bad. Its so balanced without the 06 ripeness. Nose had nuts, popcorn, cream soda, minerals and stone fruit. Palate was rich and fat with nut and stone fruit. The length is tremendous. Very good potential but also drinking well now.

Dense and mineral, such precision and balance. A beautiful wine. Light Chardonnay butter at the end... but it's really about the overwhelmingly rich explosion and minerality
