April 26, 2024 - Blinded. This was paired side-by-side the '20 O. Leflaive Champ Gain. Served cold, this took a while to open up. Both wines seemed to have the same maker signature (or perhaps it was also the similar vintage at play). Citrusy nose initially, with more reductive notes of struck match, toast, sesame wafting forth as it aired in the glass. On the palate this showed more of that "salty" minerality as opposed to the Champ Gain. Both had very good mouthfeel, with a slight tinge of that "oily" texture. A very nice start to our dinner!

April 6, 2024 - Light body but packs a serious punch. Needs a bit more time to mellow out and come together but still quite enjoyable.
