Slightly developed nose with yellow apples, noticeable minerality, some butter and spice, hints of nuts and dried fruit, and some perfume notes. Medium(+) body and good weight on the palate, citrus, some green apple, pronounced minerality, good acidity and freshness. Drinks well now and with some developed notes, but still youngish, 91 p.
Quite good for a village-level wine, as is often the case for this combination of producer and vineyard/climat. It comes across as quite "premier cru-ish". The ripe vintage isn't really noticeable in any negative sense whatsoever, but is probably "responsible" for the weight of the wine.

Straw color. Aromas of limes, kerosine, almond oil and minerals. Ripe but very focused fruit in the mouth with very good depth and length and a solid core of refreshing acidity. Still very youthful but very full and persistent on the palate. Try again in 2 years.

More complex and longer on the palate than the 6/13/14 bottle.
