Montrachet Grand Cru

TASTING NOTES

Bright, pale yellow. Brooding aromas of apple, cinnamon and white flowers. Fat, broad and sweet; rich in dry extract but very young and unevolved today. The back end displays enticing saline minerality but also a distinctly phenolic, even tannic impression. No shortage of acidity here.
