"From a tiny 0.0738 ha parcel in Chassagne. A deft touch of wood frames linear, direct, pure, gorgeously complex if reserved fresh white flowers and citrus aromas followed by precise, intense, elegant flavors of simply stunning length. The breathtaking intensity builds from the mid-palate and this is almost sensory overload. This is knocking on the door of greatness."
