Acidity makes this wine hold together. I'm on a mission to remove the dead wood from my cellar and I expected to feed the drain with this one, but I will probably finish the bottle. I would never serve this to a guest, but the Scotsman in me whispers: "finish it". Fruit still present, but fading. (56 views)

Has come around with time in the cellar. No tannin present, but good acidity to provide structure. Far better than my most recent evaluations. Drink soon. (82 views)

Bottle 1302g. Moderately intense aromas of red cherry and strawberry, with a light herbal note. Dry, with elevated fresh acidity, just medium-bodied, 12.5°, moderate but gentle grippy tannins. Hard to find Burgundies with this kind of cool climate character nowadays.
Wild mushrooms with spinach, bulgur and dukkah. I think the sumac will chime with this. (304 views)

Drinkable, but barely.Big time volatile acidity. Cellar tracker says I have 4 bottles left. Hopefully I've given them away (not to good friends). Drink now or pour down the sink. The '13 vintage was great,but probably an aberration. Addendum: I didn't pour it down the drain. Tasted again day 7 stored at 60 degrees F. Has come around. Probably deserves an 89. (242 views)

Vinegar on the nose and palate. I really liked the 2013, so took a flyer on a case of 2014. Not my finest hour. This wine has improved a bit, but never will improve further. If you are unfortunate enough to have this in your cellar, drink up. (274 views)

If this bottle is typical, this wine is not going to improve. Not as good as the 2013. (345 views)

Seems to be shedding some rough edges that it showed shortly upon release. Otherwise ditto previous notes. (368 views)

I've had this wine in the past and rated it much higher. I considered not rating this as my experience departs in a statistically significant way from past experience. The wine does not seem flawed in any way, but presents with a bitterness on the finish that I don't remember and find somewhat unpleasant. Would not be surprised if this wine succumbs to pre-mox, or was this just an atypical bottle? (538 views)

Nice unoaked white from northern Burgundy. Tastes like it, perhaps has pinot blanc, or pinot auxerios in the blend. Full bodied with good acidity. Nice alternative to Macon. Good value. (667 views)
