taut and sleekly muscled flavors that possess both focus and richness on the strikingly long finish that is super intense even among this group of unusually intense wines

candied fruit and minerals

serious and impressively persistent finish

The natural ripeness of the year amps up the Chardonnay flavors

Simon Bize, Latricieres Chambertin other_regions_australia taut and sleekly muscled flavors(from leased, 30 year old vines that previously were exploited by Domaine Ponsot until 1994). This too is a large scaled wine that is surprisingly dense in the context of the vintage with beautifully pure fruit, intensely mineral flavors that are also rich and serious. Excellent length to go with the pure. slightly austere style. Beautiful wine but for the patient.
