The 2016 Bourgogne Blanc from Arnaud Ente is also a beautiful wine in the making, offering plenty of early complexity tied to a medium weight format of great vibrancy and charm. The bouquet jumps from the glass in a lovely blend of pear, apple, a touch of nuttiness, lemon blossoms and a fine base of chalky soil tones. On the palate the wine is pure, fullish and intensely flavored, with vibrant acids, fine focus and a long, zesty finish that closes with excellent cut and grip. A very charged middleweight in the making. - JG
