2013 Bourgogne Blanc

The 2013 Bourgogne Blanc was one of the final vintages before it was deemed worthy of being labelled Musigny Blanc. You can certainly see why they thought it was due. It has a taut and linear bouquet, very mineral-driven with real power and focus, hints of oyster shell and dandelion. The palate is bounding full of energy with a superb line of acidity and that marine influence coming through on the finish, brioche on the aftertaste. Divine. Tasted at Bristro de l'Hôtel in Beaune.
