La Princée is a blend of ten small village parcels totalling just under three hectares. One-third of these vines are now over 60 years old, with the remainder planted in 1985 and 2000. All the parcels are sited in the cooler, east-facing Saint-Aubin combe (or valley), on chalky, mineral soils. It is therefore no surprise that this is a racy, crunchy white Burgundy of enormous, limestone-rich personality and energy. For lovers of mineral white Burgundies, this will offer more pleasure than many wines at twice the price.
A most interesting nose is comprised by notes of iodine and exotic fruit scents that include both white and yellow peach. The racy, intense and detailed middle weight flavors are also supported by citrus-tinged acidity on the clean and dry finale. Rating: 87-90points by Allen Meadows - Burghound
