Musky, highly complex aromas of lemon, lime & hazelnut. Sweet on entry, then impressively tensile in the middle palate, offering superb intensity to its citrus, spice & mineral flavors. This tactile, penetrating wine builds impressively toward the back end & finishes with outstanding lift & persistence. Rigorous, almost painful, wine, but wonderfully rich for chardonnay with barely 13% alcohol. These vines are in the upper portion of Charmes, next to the top of Puligny-Montrachet Combettes. 91-94 points. Stephen Tanzers International Wine Cellar
