March 30, 2024 - I think #9 of 12, sound cork, 1-2 mm ullage. Dinner party with rack of lamb and similar fare. Good depth, complex, length, but I think Ducster72 has this right: the primary fruit aspects are no longer present but the wine seems to be at an awkward "not quite secondary aromatics yet" stage. The gorgeous aromatics of ~ 5 years ago have become hidden again. Decanted an hour before tasting, that was not enough time. 4 hours after decanting it was still relatively tight but had not declined at all. I will let my last 3 bottles sit for a while!

October 21, 2023 - {Bottle 8 of 12, opened and then decanted x an hour, sound cork} Initially a bit reserved but then superb fruit, big wine, very sophisticated tannins, forever length. Nose a bit reticent and then ... grew and grew. 94+ and easily the match of many Grand Cru Gevreys tasted recently with Confrerie group in June. Inching towards 95 points ... An hour decant might be too short a time, it was still improving during the 30 or 40 minutes it was in the glass at a neighbor's dinner party.

October 9, 2023 - Aging well and at its plateau. Earthy tone with elegances. Touch of mushroom tertiary notes at a good spot

4/1/2007 (link)(Bouchard Père et Fils Volnay Caillerets Ancienne Cuvée Carnot) Again with 4 hectares of vines, Bouchard P&F own close to one third of Caillerets. The nose starts in a very understated way; floral, but needs quite some coaxing to show a little more depth and again faint barrel notes. A silky texture covers fruit of understated power - aided by fine acidity the complex flavours just roll over and over your tongue. This is really lovely.
