  I love this wine. It was never reduced but it was pretty tight at first so decanted for about two hours before drinking. The nose is so elegant, so fine and delicate in expression, it requires attention, would be lost at a tasting or a dinner with multiple bottles open. But it’s just beautiful, very savory with sea water and white flowers that turn musky after another hour open. This delicacy and gentleness sets one up for a surprise on the palate because it really pops with energetic and vibrant flavors that have real impact and length. This is classically styled and just an excellent wine. That said, there’s no fruit to speak of and no richness and no gloss. Stripped down essence of white burgundy mineral beauty.
