France

Montrachet Grand Cru

Medium

Natural Cork

White

Drunk from a jeroboam purchased a decade ago at auction, this wine was breathtaking. Light in colour, it was still very lemony and fresh. The trademark buttery richness of the vineyard and the vintage were undoubtedly there. Still, the youthful character of the citrus, apple, and hawthorn flower aromas was the most surprising and satisfying aspect of the experience. The texture was silky and refined, and the finish stretched out endlessly. Véronique Drouhin was right when she told me that I could wait to drink this, although I do not regret opening it in the least.
