A wonderfully penetrating nose with knife-like delineation offers nots of white flowers, hazelnut and pear that are followed by precise flavors dripping with minerality and knockout intensity that builds from the mid-palate and continues on to the long, dynamic and harmonious finish. This is undeniably of grand cru quality though one that has clearly arrived at its apogee. Note that while I have generally had good luck with this wine, I have also had two bottles that displayed wisps of premox.
