A step up from this producer's rather pedestrian Vaillons premier cru, this bottling offers pleasant but reserved aromas of slate and stone fruits. Some appley fruit pops on first impression, but then retreats, leaving an almondy, minerally finish. A nice enough wine that provokes more praise than complaints, but it's a bit tough to swallow at this hefty price. Michael Schachner
