or at least marginally so

there is less primary fruit intensity

it is elegant and refreshingly racy

Very fine quality here

There is good energy and detail to the sleek middle weight flavors where the relatively refined texture of the mid-palate contrasts markedly with the robust but not rustic finale

Olivier Leflaive, Batard Montrachet Brut Zero or at least marginally so(entirely from the Puligny side). A bit like the Clos St. Marc, sulfur masks everything but a citrus whiff that is picked up by the dense, serious and muscular flavors that possess evident power on the clean, dry and borderline strict finish that is quite linear today. This will need at least a few years to flesh out and add overall depth. (91 94) 2027+
