  March 8, 2024 - DRC Montrachet Vertical: Very good, and enjoyable birth year wine, but not quite one of the greatest vintages.

  September 2, 2023 - Deep gold and caramel color. The nose is explosive, with aromas of apricots, caramel, lychee and honey. Full body, seductive yet with great acidity and mouth drying lingering finish. This is a beautiful wine.

  June 17, 2023 - Mørk ravgul. Lukter av karamell og appelsin; lite hint av kaffe. I munnen dominerer appelsin først; intens frukt og tyngde, men ikke veldig påtrengende sødme. Karamell og sjokolade; lett bitter smak av mørk sjokolade mot slutten.

  December 31, 2022 - NYE 2022/23 (Gohlis Foodies): From 37,5cl, shrunken cork fell into bottle on first approach with my ah-so. Hasty but successful decant. Dark golden, recognisably noble, botyitis, some saffron, ground almonds, fairly rich. 88-89P(?) in this condition, well preserved bottles with better closures, and especially larger formats will surely show much better than this.

  October 12, 2022 - A nice d'Yquem, but short of thrilling, the wine is on the orange, tropical side of the style range with caramel, molasses, and brown sugar nuances that ride along with the candied orange rind, molasses, tangerine and candied orange rind, topped with an array of spices and butterscotch. Drink from 2022-2037.
