Georges Noellat, Vosne Romanee Beaux Monts Vintage:2016 39% Chardonnay(from a . 45 ha parcel). A ripe but cool and even spicier nose offers up notes of anise and hoisin on the pretty aromas of black pinot fruit and violet nuances. The sleek, refined and beautifully detailed middle weight flavors are not especially dense though there is enough sap to buffer the moderately firm supporting tannins on the balanced finish. This isnt quite as vibrant as the Petits Monts but its attractive in a riper fashion.
