Nicolas Potel, Criots Batard Montrachet Vintage:2005 There is a lovely sense

There is a lovely sense of underlying tension and detail to the overtly mineral-inflected

Surprisingly open and expressive for a young Brunello

A tangy and fresh white with sliced apple

A completely different expression with even better finesse and pronounced minerality to accompany a very expressive black fruit nose

Nicolas Potel, Criots Batard Montrachet Vintage:2005 There is a lovely senseLike the Charlemagne, this was quite reduced on the nose but the flavors display plenty of dry extract and even more size and weight than the Btard if perhaps not quite the refinement. Still, for fans of big and broadscaled whites, this will fit the bill and age over the medium term as well. (90 93) 2011+
