Jean-Jacques Morel Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Chatenière Blanc

Open 24 hrs now. Stunning. See previous note.

Wow, CT says I have one more of these, and I hope it's correct. Pop and pour. Five years since my last btl apparently, and this is a gem. On the nose: soft vanilla, candied ginger, hazelnut oil, grilled lemon..amazing complexity. On the palate: weightless and fantastic density, balanced acidity, grilled hazelnut drizzled with lemon, soft apple and a soft salinity. So good.

Whoa, this was excellent. Beautiful nose with bright peach and apricot, contrasted with stylish oak and pungent citrus blossom. Fantastic acidity on the palate, followed by spicy peach, and a touch of what seema like woody bitterness, which disappears quickly to reveal more spicy bright fruit on the finish.
