  February 1, 2024 - Pnp. Helt åpen. Fortsatt ung. Gul frukt, popcorn, smeltet smør. En dødsgod nese som har alt man vil ha i en hvit burgunder. Ganske utrolig at denne er 11 år.
  
  I munn har den en nydelig fruktsødme og nokså høy syre. Men er litt tynnere og kortere enn man forventer fra nesa. Antar at det må tilskrives årgangen. Uansett en veldig pen vin. 92-93p.

  As all CL from 2013 this is a great Burgundy. Decanted and drank over two hours. Saline and with decent lime and green apple notes. Refreshing acidity, close to his peak. 94-95

  Flott nese, men trenger en del luft for å blomstre.
  Sexy og flinty.
  Fortsatt ung og siste slumpen i glasset, er det beste.
  Slank årgang for Gouttes - savner kanske bittelitt dybde.
  Frukten er ren og intens.
  Skyter virkelig fart i utgangen.
  Ganske lang med intens mineralitet.
  Solid finish. 92p
  Kunne fort fått høyere score med lengre lufting på forhånd.

  April 5, 2020 - A lot of citrus on the nose, citrus and great acidity on the palate, very youthful, this wine can easily go another 10 years. Nice buttery citrus finish. Definitely not peaked

  February 18, 2020 - 'No Masks' Hong Kong Dinner (Table, 8th Floor, The Pemberton, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong): Light silver gold colour closer to a NZ Sauvignon Blanc... clearly young. Nose is reticent... too cold. Palate is beautifully precise lemon juice and lime juice and oyster jus. Very young but outstandingly pure and precise. Too young to have any length. It improved kept aside for 3 hours to re-visit at the end of the dinner. 90 for now but possibly biased by the chilly opening. I associate Meursault with having a lot more 'oomph' but I really liked this and it definitely has upside over the next 3-5 years whilst it should retain some of its lovely freshness.
