"From 60+ year old vines and the vineyard is a whopping 4 ha monopole within Perrières. An almost invisible touch of wood influence allows the elegant, ripe and ultra pure aromas of citrus blossom, spice and orchard fruit to have center stage while the focused, textured and almost painfully intense flavors culminate in a bone dry, silky and seriously long finish. As good as the Perrières is, and it's indeed very good, there is simply another dimension present here. Along with the Pucelles, this is highly recommended."
