This is also lovely though it too needs to add depth

with steadily building tannins and resonating florality

delineated and even more mineral-suffused flavors that possess an attractive muscularity before culminating in a solidly long if arguably not quite as complex finale

As such my rating is a compromise as I suspect that this will develop even better complexity with age and thus even if the balance isn’t perfect

Joseph Colin, Saint Aubin Chateniere Vintage:2021 This is also lovely thoughMuch better freshness characterizes the cool, pure and airy nose of citrus, apple, mineral reduction and soft floral nuances. The racy, intense and well delineated medium bodied flavors exude evident minerality on the saline and very dry but not really austere finish. Note that this is sufficiently firm to warrant 6 to 8 years of keeping. 90 2024+
