Note di degustazione
(the yield here was just 30 hectoliters per hectare, according to Latour): Rather pale, bright yellow. Alluring scents of peach, lemon, mandarin orange and smoky oak, plus a whiff of almond flower. Very suave on entry, then drier and more closed in the middle palate than the Charmes, but with excellent citrus lift to relieve its salinity. Laid-back, concentrated wine with a fine-grained texture and excellent verve. Really resounds on the salty finish. There's a lot more to come here.

Pale, bright yellow. A musky essence of Meursault on the nose and palate: stone fruits, lime and hazelnut, plus a hint of oak char. This very tactile, saline wine shows less early sweetness than the Charmes (it's a bit less advanced today) but it's more complex and profound even if its components are not yet in perfect harmony. The long finish leaves behind a note of honey. This deep wine boasts terrific stuffing and should be a beauty.
