Jean Marc Roulot has always been a champion of showcasing individual terroir diversity with his terrific village lieux-dits, and the excellent 2017 vintage which has turned out so well for both red and white burg, is just perfect for it. Les Luchets is fantastic tonight, wafting from the glass with layers of white orchard fruit, lilies, hazelnut, spices and attractive matchstick reduction. The palate is pure and vibrant with a crystalline minerality, an elegant texture and notably impressive length. Really great bottle.

Medium straw , light yellow colour . Quite reserved on the nose , lean and tight, with some herbal citrus notes , white flowers , youthful . On the palate , citrus with some white peach , mineral and lightly creamy mid palate. Good mineral tinged citrus length . Still young and needs time to open , from now and probably better in 5 years or so. At Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud , Dublin , 22nd Jan 2026
