  August 22, 2019 - 37.5 cl. Needs time and air to come together. On the nose complex with nuts and a hint of lovage, good concentration, bone dry, high juicy acidity and long finish. Unfortunately my last bottle, have to get more of this (91+).

  October 3, 2018 - From 0.375 l bottle. Not the first bottle but the best up to now, seems to be good to not drink this wine too young.
  Very nutty, good concentration but still quite airy, high acidity, long finish. Very good now but still ages to go. Superb price to quality relation and very good with old, tasty cheese, prefer to drink it cold.

  September 11, 2013 - Jura, Puligny Montrachet and Champagne; 9/8/2013-9/20/2013: From 75cl, P+P in a restaurant. I really wanted to enjoy this (being on holiday, knowing it was being served at a 320% markup and trying not to care...) but alas, this is like drinking an even sharper version of the unpleasantly sour Frankfurt speciality non-sparkling and unsweetened cider called "Äppelwoi" (not a recommendation). Wood, acid, sour grape juice, more acid: burn stomach, burn! Pure Savagnin may be the basis for great Vin Jaune, but there is a good reason why the better winemakers in the Jura blend it with Chardonnay in table wine. 14% alc. Pass the Alka-Seltzer, please. (82-)83P
