September 30, 2019 - This was really humming - and significantly superior to the Paulands from same producer and year that was poured alongside it. Gorgeous nose. Lots of excellent fruit. Nice balance for such a young Corton. No rush on these...10 more years will likely add complexity.

February 4, 2018 - Not quite as good as 2005 side by side, but close. 2005 softer, brighter fruit. But this one is very good for the vintage and ready to go.

June 7, 2015 - Highlights from Thierry's pre-tour dinner: A fragrant floral, red berried character on nose, with some dry underbrush and spices. On palate, drier and more savoury than the 2002 Rousseau Cazetiers served with it. Such was the elegance and delicacy, I had the wine as a Côte de Nuits, or perhaps a Volnay, but certainly not a young Corton. Flavours of jelly crystals, iron ore and red cherries. Once I knew the wine was a Corton, I thought it must be an accessible '98 or '99. Having recently drunk a 2006 Faiveley Corton (don't try this), the 2006 Comte Senard is very approachable for a Corton. Helen noted the delicate extraction and what she thought was older oak here as the reasons for the accessibility. Still, ideally, I'd cellar it for another 5+ years.

November 1, 2014 - Round mouthfeel. Some spice. Dark berry fruit. Round. Lots of tannin and acid though. A little on the puckering side to me so must be able to wait. Fruit wasn't super forward. A little tight

July 27, 2014 - Good structure and acidity. Bright cherry with pretty firm tannic structure. Could use some more time. Medium finish
