Pale yellow with a green tinge. Very reticent, cool nose hints at crushed rock and flinty minerality. Deep and vibrant, with an almost painful intensity to its pure flavors of crushed stone and minerals. There's underlying citrus flavor here, but the overwhelming impression is of crushed and wet stone. A real essence of Perrieres for the purist (but restaurants will prefer La Romanee for its fruitier style, notes Dancer), from vines planted in 1963 and the late 1970s.In Bond£654.64 -
