Maison Louis Jadot 2016 Pernand Vergelesses "Les Combottes" Blanc 750ml

Pale, bright yellow-straw. Less spicy and more delicate on the nose than the Saint-Aubin cuvées, offering scents of lemon and flowers. Fresh, shapely and penetrating, even slightly austere in the early going, with its lemon and pear flavors lifted by a floral element. This tight wine from a southwest-facing limestone site finishes with firm citrussy grip.
