"A 50/50 blend of Pernand and Aloxe. A green fruit nose also has detectable sulfur but again, I'm confident that it will be absorbed given how recent the mise was. The big-bodied flavors are full, intense and minerally that I particularly admire the outstanding precision on the linear, punchy and seriously powerful finish. This is blessed with ample dry extract and I particularly like the balance here."
