Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
Meursault (what?)
air Nose
immediately makes me think of an old 'B' from Dufftown, from similar or even older vintages. Sublime mirabelles, quinces and apricots, white flowers (acacia, woodruff), the noblest custard, some multi-floral meadow honey, and just 'a beehive in the midst of summer'. Terrific, pure, elegant, entrancing nose
restaurant Palate
wait, isn't this baby either 43 or 44? Once more it's full of yellow fruits and flowers, honeys, nectars, beeswax, wrinkled old apples, sesame and pistachio halva, roasted sunflower seeds, then citrus (say citrons and bergamots)
timer Finish
medium, incredibly fresh, very floral. Borage and edible pansies, I'd say, so obviously, flower nectar. The bees are right, they are always right
