Note di degustazione
Showcasing 50 year old vines in particularly stony, clay-poor soil, the Ente 2006 Meursault Clos des Ambres mingles freshly milled wheat, lemon, coconut, honeysuckle and chalk dust in the nose; combines density and creaminess of texture with refreshment, and ripe fruit with restraint; and finishes with clarity and polish. It should evolve nicely for 4-5 years. Ente began picking September 13, finishing in six days. The result is wines of consistent clarity and refreshment, as well as full of nuances that call forth a mineral vocabulary. Use of demi-muids rather than barriques to raise many of the wines here helps ward off any overt woodiness. Eighty percent of Ente’s wine is exported, most of that to the U.S. and U.K. Importer: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA; tel (510) 524-1524

Peach fuzz and lovely floral lift on the nose. Very ripe peach flavor shows a hint of reduction. Opulent but not exotic, even if it's a bit less complex than the 2007. Wonderfully sweet, tactile Meursault with lovely fruit.
Cask sample. Fresh and blossomy with a hint of smoke on the nose – very brilliant, shiny fruit. Quite opulent with really rapier-like acidity and lots of jewelly greengage fruit. Seems very engaging already. Slight note of bitterness/quinine on the finish. Long. (JR)
(from vines planted in the early 1950s; 25% new oak used) Spicy aromas of lemon drop, peach, menthol and spring flowers; more closed than the plain village cuvee Densely packed, tight and suave, with delicate but intense flavors of lemon, lime, white peach and spices. This is less obviously ripe and solid than the basic village offering but finishes with lovely subtle flavor and grip.
