A clean fresh lemon yellow. The bouquet is just a little more precise and a little more crystalline than Sur La Roche, with possibly greater underlying intensity as well. We are clearly in white fruit territory with a fine mineral backbone. This is stylish and punchy at the same time. Drink from 2027-2034.In Bond£558.00 -

In bottle. A fraction paler and tighter on the nose, after bottling. A pretty trace of wood, a little touch of the exotic, the thicker texture of all Valentin's wines this year, generous yellow fruit, low but adequate acidity, no heat though and maybe a saline note to finish.In Bond£682.00 -

The 2022 Meursault 1er Cru Poruzot wafts from the glass with aromas of white peach, pear, apple blossom, hazelnuts and nutmeg. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and enveloping, it's seamless and vibrant, with an elegantly fleshy core of fruit, bright acids and a saline finish.In Bond£877.00 -

A glowing pale lime colour. Some restrained floral notes, but not demonstrative. On the palate there is a strong line of chalky white fruit, with a discreet intensity, but clearly adequately ripe.

Mid lemon, with just a little bit more intensity on the nose, and very much more on the palate. There is some oak to back it up but the fruit concentration merits this.
