2016 Chablis Grand Cru, Les Preuses, Lucien Le Moine (Magnum)
(this wine is unlikely to be bottled until the fall of 2019!; still five grams of sugar remaining--and full of gas; Saouma has a 500-liter demi-muid of this wine): Musky scents of citrus fruits, gardenia, white rose, anise, smoke, fresh herbs and earth. Very dry, rich and thick, but with a remarkably sappy, penetrating quality to its citrus and floral flavors. The extremely slow-building, edge-free finish stains the palate with licorice and menthol. Utterly distinctive grand cru Chablis--but then this bottling has been consistently stunning since its inaugural 2012 vintage.
