Tasting notes
The 2017 Blanc de Noirs Presle is very subdued in this tasting. Medium in body and soft, the 2017 Presle is decidedly hushed in its personality and voice. It will be interesting to see if the aromatics and fruit emerge a bit more fully with time. Today, Presle is soft, silky and ready to go. No dosage. Disgorged: 2021.

With the 2017 Blanc de Noirs Presle, these Gevrey-Chambertin massal selection vines attained their tenth year, and the result is a striking success. Unfurling in the glass with notes of lemon oil, warm bread, anise, Asian pear, crushed chalk and white flowers, framed by hints of beeswax and spice, the wine is medium to full-bodied, racy and saline, with an elegantly textural attack that segues into a deep and sapid mid-palate. Concluding with a long, saline finish, this will evolve immensely gracefully in the cellar.
