The aromas have width, are super-dense but deep and fresh. This has really 1st class texture. It is linear and mineral, the intensity growing all the time. Truly excellent – chapeau!

From the Pernand side of the hill – had to wait until 17th September to harvest these grapes. 50% new oak. The complex nose has a hint of understatement but shows plenty of floral notes and maybe a hint of SO2. Like the Chassagne, it’s hard to take the intensity, though this time it has just a little fat to smooth the texture. Really good weight of extract – this is very impressive.
2007 Dublère Beaune Blanche Fleurs
The vines are sited right next-door to Beaune 1er Clos du Roi. Medium, medium-pale colour. The nose has a wonderful array of precise pinot berry/cherry fruits – just lovely. Again, beautiful fruit on the tongue and an extra dimension of creamy fruit in the mid-palate – very persistent. For the moment there remains a hint of oak flavour – frankly gorgeous – buy, buy, buy…
