January 31, 2023 - Chassagne Ruchottes / Vosne-Romanée Grand Cru tasting (Groot-Ammers, Netherlands): Magnum. Honeyed, powerful and authoritative, depth and weight, needs time to develop in the glass, salty oak, very good length. Not an obvious wine.

August 30, 2020 - Not totally sure what to make of this. At first it smells like dry Riesling with overt pineapple and white peach and more stone fruit kind of scents. It also feels quite sweet upfront. It takes a long while to develop a more smoky and sulfur character. The straight Montrachet richness, density, and power are there for sure, although they are expressed through fruits and with a level of sweetness I don’t think any other producers really use. Good to drink, but different.

June 29, 2019 - Occasional dinner group; Best bottles in white and red. (@ Bottles; Sas van Gent, Netherlands): Complex and beautiful bouquet with some candy, lemon and minerals. On the palate the same impressions, some nuts and vanilla, beautiful acidity and bitterness. Full bodied and a great length. A real beauty with plenty of future.
