Description
This wine comes from an outlying vineyard, sitting between the railway line and airfield near Nuits-St. Georges. The land is low-lying here but there is clay and limestone. The little parcel of 0.15 ha that Jean Pierre has found has a mix of two-thirds chardonnay and one-third pinot blanc, with 50-year-old vines. The enjoyment is all front-loaded with lots of aromatic character and some exotic fruit notes. The palate gives pleasure although the lowly provenance finally wins out on a shortish finish. Nonetheless, this is exceptional for what it is, and where it comes from.

Critics reviews
Jasper Morris MW 84-86/100
Fullish yellow, slightly confected even a bit nutty. I don’t think I get this. The confection remains, saved by good acidity. One third pinot blanc brings the apples to the fore.

Allen Meadows 86-88/100
The blend has about 1/3 Pinot Blanc in it.
Discreet wood influence is present on the aromas of petrol, citrus and a subtle floral suggestion. The opulent, rich and plump flavors possess a seductive texture that contrasts markedly with the lemony, very dry and mildly rustic finish. To enjoy young.
