Sous Le Végétal

Le Meix Sous le Château Meursault Chardonnay 2015

Superbe bouteille, belle tension, mineral, fruit pur, salin avec de la rondeur et du volume. 91-92

Superb bottle, fresh, crisp, pure fruit, saline almost yet with some weight and volume, gorgeous.

Sous Eguisons Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Chardonnay 2014

Notes for other years underrate this fantastic Chardonnay reboot as shown in the 2014 vintage. Lemon curd, honeysuckle and beautiful minerality and acidity. A lot of so called better Burgundian properties could learn a lot from Caroline L'Estimé's brilliant reimagining of what Chardonnay can be, rather than what it has been. — 9 years ago

"Sous le Cellier" Monthelíe Chardonnay 2013

Aromas of wood freshly cut via table or circular saw, caramelized sugar and radial tire - things were looking up. Initial glass was a bit short, which I must say was disappointing after such an auspicious beginning. After a bit of time, she broadened out into an elegant, almost weightless drink. So delicate and pleasant.

@Byron Hewett Amazing how long living the 2005 Burgundies are - even the whites.

Sous la Tour Pinot Noir 2016

Boldly and marvelously fragrant, with ripe cherry, blackberries, almond paste, cinnamon stick, and hints of cloves, spicy mint, and warm tires on the nose. Dark cherry, juicy plum, raspberry on the palate with notes of milk chocolate giving way to sharp scratchy mint-tea tannins and a hint of bacon fat emerging with black peppercorns on a long finish. Very well done and interesting. Excellent value — 6 years ago

The bacon fat sounds more like Syrah than Pinot, but a brilliant list of descriptors
