justerini & brooks tasting note

This hails from a plot of 40-year-old vines between Albert Grivault's Clos des Perrières and Perrières itself. A premier cru site if ever you saw one but for the fact that it was a quarry up until 1977, which has meant that it was never classed as such. Aged in 30% new oak. Due to the size of the crop we were not able to taste this cuvée.

critic reviews

89-91/100Neal Martin,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2015 Bourgogne Terroir d'Exception has an attractive bouquet with scents of apple blossom, cold stone and a subtle, almost Muscat-like scent that lends complexity. The palate is fresh on the entry with crisp acidity. I like the energy here, but most of all the unexpected salinity on the finish that urges you back for another sip. Considering this a mere white Burgundy, at least in legal terms, is it exceptionally fine.
