Jean-Paul & Benoit Droin Montee de Tonnerre, 1er cru - 2012 (750ml) Cortese Forget this for another 3-4This is quite aromatically similar to the Fourchaume though here there is also a discreet hint of sulfur and the wood is all but invisible. There is fine concentration to the powerful, suave and intensely stony flavors that possess superb finishing complexity on the balanced, clean, very dry and energetic finish. As is often the case, this delivers grand cru quality. Burghound 94 points
