Taut and mineral-driven, this shows the vintage's challenges clearly. Stone fruit and citrus peel emerge alongside distinctive white pepper spice, but the wine feels compressed and edgy from hail-reduced yields. The texture has weight, yet lacks the usual generosity. This needs several years to find its form and soften those angular edges.

Arnaud Ente is one of Meursault's most sought-after small producers, making tightly wound, mineral whites from village and premier cru sites including La Goutte d'Or and Clos des Ambres. Allocations are tiny and demand is high.
