a mouth-filling Pinot Gris

reine claude (greengage) and elderflower

The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Betinna Cuvée Franci shows some soft contouring on the edges

with gently chewy tannins

Juxtaposed against the 1996 Haut-Batailley I find more energy in this

David Duband, Latricieres Chambertin other_regions_australia a mouth-filling Pinot Gris(from a . 30 ha parcel). A cool, airy and super elegant nose reflects aromas of spice, red currant and various red berries. The gorgeously textured and chiseled middle weight flavors seem to be built on a base of minerality, all wrapped in dusty, backward and overtly austere finish that also delivers huge length. This is a classic and beautiful Latricires that makes clear it will take its sweet time maturing.
