Notes from Becky Wasserman & Co.:

"70 year old vines from the higher part of Charmes ("Dessus"), gentle slope.

Antoine Lepetit de la Bigne wears many hats and, over the past 15 or so years, has devoted himself to helping growers develop and succeed with organic and biodynamic viticultural methods in Burgundy. We met him at Domaine Leflaive in Puligny-Montrachet, where he worked for 8 years. "

Jasper Morris:

One third new wood has been used, the right proportion for a Meursault Charmes. Mid lemon yellow. A stylish white fruit with a touch of cream. A lovely balance between the fruit and the acidity, good lees contact here, very classy finish even though above 14%. Citrus notes at the finish. Punchy but very fine as well.
