Big, but this has more elegance. Oakey, still and spicey, this is a very fruity style, but one more mineral and elegant. (CW 8/11/18)

Stephen Tanzer
(the highest of the vintage; from vines harvested first, on September 5). Pale, green-tinged yellow. Aromas of passion fruit and lemon are lifted by minerals and flowers. A step up in concentration and saline minerality from the foregoing samples but still an ultimately gentle wine in spite of its cut, conveying an almost exotic sweetness (two grams per liter r.s., vs. barely 0.5 gram for the village Puligny). These vines were planted the year Boillot was born (1950), which he joked `makes them young.` 88-91 points
