Follin indicated that he had vinified this with about 15% whole clusters

in fact it’s borderline massive and not surprisingly it’s going to need a very long time to arrive at its full potential

One of my favorite wines

this is not to say that it is an elegant wine though it is less youthfully austere than I typically find with this wine

super-finessed Blanc des Blancs

Vincent Girardin, Corton Charlemagne Blanc other_regions_italy Follin indicated that he had(from Ladoix fruit). A ripe and vaguely exotic nose grudgingly reveals its aromas of orange peel, green apple, white peach and a whiff of jasmine tea. The dense, muscular and powerful big bodied flavors exude a bracing salinity on the mouth coating, clean and dry finish that is firm and borderline rustic. This will need at least some patience and reward a decade plus of bottle aging.
