The do-maine owns close to three acres of this grand cru; the vines, facing south and southeast, produced a heady 2011, its richness held tight and closed off by a gentle, persistent acidity that feels like cool rain. The flavors are mostly chalk and seashell, bitter almond and cheese rind, all pale notes that feel complex and layered with an airy brightness that seems to imply fruit, a component needing bottle age to come to the fore.
