November 17, 2022 - A little exotic when first opened, but after 30-40 min air reveals beautifully structured & balanced chardonnay holding chalky minerality against well integrated fruit & oak. Pie crusty, brioche nose with taste moving from fresh to candied fruits.
Likely at peak.. may decline in 2-4 years. -

May 9, 2021 - Pale Golden color.
Nose a little quiet, but what is there is lovely; some melon, hints of barrique, generally fresh aroma.
Nicely balanced to a little soft on the acid, although the palate is not as broad or generous as expected from the age. Great flavors, long finish, wine opened up and held over several hours. -

May 2, 2020 - Enjoyable, after a certain green vegetal note dissipates. Depth, acid, some oxidation.. soft yellow fruit. Has a bit of edge to it.

March 28, 2018 - Apparently I didn't consume all my bottles. And apparently I was tight-fisted with the points on 05/14/17 (88). This bottle is excellent and rivals a 1er Cru burgundy. Toasty with lemon and orchard fruits and wonderful light texture. Hope I find another bottle!
