Lucien Le Moine La Romanée Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru 2022

Pungent aromas of lactic and reduction dominate the nose. Otherwise, there is a lovely texture to the succulent, round and delicious but decidedly punchy medium-bodied flavors that also exude a subtle bead of minerality on the very compact, indeed backward, citrus-tinged finish that demonstrates positively huge length. Patience absolutely required. Drink: 2032+. Sweet spot. Outstanding. (Allen Meadows,burghound.com,June 10, 2024)
