Domaine Robert-Denogent

Tried this at Xmas...it got lost in the mix of wine and food...
Decided this time to decant 3 hours before...poured back into the bottle shortly before drinking.
The grower is in Fuisse..but this cuvée is from Meursault...100% Chardonnay
Domaine Robert-Denogent, Jean-Jacques Robert-Denogent, Fuisse, Maconnais Bourgogne 'Murgey de Limozin' Ultime, 2004
Pale colour; mineraly nose, trace of pineapple; elegant, slightly reserved at the moment, altho decanting helped enormously, still found something in glass, a wine to work on, nutty and creamy..a soft explosion of flavour at the end..fine wine..
Points 17 (needs a few years)
