2011 Jean Masson Apremont Collection

Here is David Schildknecht’s review of the 2010:

“Bearing the oversized but understated, vaguely antique pale green label that it has for years and originating in the same parcel as his V.V. du Sciecle cuvee, Masson’s 2010 Apremont Collection displays a greenhouse like aromatic display of leaves and flowers, with a dynamic palate interchange between multiple mineral nuances (alkaline, stony, fusil, somehow crystalline and seemingly shimmering) and bright citricity. The flavors here – for now at least – shade toward the cool, subtle, almost aloof; at the same time, I experienced the highest-acid impression among Masson’s cuvees of this vintage. There is an uncanny alliance here of palpable extract with levity not to mention refreshment, and if the scents and flavors are for now a bit less diverse and alluring than in a couple of siblings, this long-lined, vibrantly and penetratingly persistent Apremont should be worth following for 4-6 years. ” 91 points
