Stacks of ripe citrus and mirabelle character, also touches of angelica and licorice. Long complex finish with some seashell character. Drink or hold.”93/100 points, James Suckling, July 2023″Though shy in aroma, this white is lush and packs peach, honey, buttered pastry and spice flavors. Round and balanced, with a kick of acidity on the lingering finish. Drink now through 2027.”90/100 points, WINE SPECTATOR, November 2023Food Pairing:Prawn cocktail avocado – grilled sea bass – stew of veal in a cream sauce – Beaufort cheese.Meursault, Louis Latour, Cote de Beaune, Burgundy, France, 2021</p>
