What an astounding colour! Light floral and apple notes. Then the palate has an instant hit of sweet apples, that gives way to a steely crisp saline edge. Then the apple fruit comes back with a rich intense finish that goes on and on. In a word delicious however in another word expensive! This is a wine from a true master but then that comes at a price due to small quantities. Certainly worth seeking out but I was lucky that this was gift for my 50th birthday last year, as at over £200 not in everyone's price range. But if you get a chance grab it and #giveanewwineago 92 points

Powerful soaring minerality, great tension, Les Preuses character. Delicious, and what I was hoping for from this bottle. That said, there was a hint of apple-ish oxidization, so I'm glad I did not wait any longer to drink this.
