Jacques Prieur, Chevalier Montrachet Blanc Size:3x750ml with a hint of earth

fresh lime and almond form the core of a sappy matrix that persists through a vigorously sustained finish

(from 45+ year old vines)

This too is a competent effort

Jacques Prieur, Chevalier Montrachet Blanc Size:3x750ml with a hint of earth(from a . 14 ha parcel). Here the nose is firmly reduced and unreadable though the underlying fruit does seem ripe. More interesting are the super sleek and intense larger scaled flavors that are admirably concentrated and quite powerful if perhaps a bit less mineral driven than usual on the sappy, complex and sneaky long finish.
