  July 8, 2021 - PNP into Lucaris Burgundy glass (“Flower” day): Deep golden to the eyes.
  
  Meaty and mature apricot notes, yellow fruits. Challky notes. Complex nose and fully mature in my view. Botrytis notes seem restrained in this particular bottle in a good way.
  
  Very complex and superbly mineral. Amazingly enjoyable and no need to wait.
  
  94-95 points.

  May 19, 2020 - Golden yellow. Suspect slight premox but not ruined, just very advanced for its age. Nose of vax, honey-melon, ripe lemon and lemonrind, winter apples, slightly bruised. Also some very light smoke/chalk. On the palate still fair levels of acidity, even if the overall impression is quite soft. Fruit toned down and again vax, vanilla, honey but some minreals and a quite fresh saltiness. Drinking quite well, but there ought to be better bottles.
  
  EDIT: some previous notes mention that this has a slight touch of botrytis and I guess this might add to the slightly sweet, advanced impression I am getting.

  September 26, 2019 - Adieu Domaine Dublère Dinner (Monnie Burke's): In 07/08/10/12 vertical. Rich and powerful with a complex sweet and savory character that proudly shows off its botrytis character. Layered and intricate throughout, this will drink well for a long time. This was an important wine in tonight's dinner because it was the first Dublère wine that excited me, tasted when I met Blair in NY in early 2010.

  July 21, 2019 - Dried apricot with slightly sweet spice and very impressive concentration and richness. While obviously not classically Chablis with its botrytis and near sweetness, there is so much complexity here that makes it so enjoyable today. Color is getting darker than I recall from several years back, but I am intrigued by this wine's long-term potential.

  October 30, 2018 - Dinner w Tom F at the Village Pub in Menlo area...great spot, corkage friendly and knowledgeable staff. A generous contribution from Tom, nicely chilled, drank over about 30 minutes
  
  Deep gold/yellow color. Really aromotic wine, nose jumped out of the glass. Showing apple, lime, spice and minerals. Rich and creamy palate - orchard fruits, pear, baked apple, baking spice, candied pineapple, mineral, ocean/saline. Rich though the mid palate, full body and long finish
  
  A lot going on here, would not have pegged this as a Chablis if drinking blind. Left some in the glass and drank later in the evening, was more perfumed not fading at all. Really gorgeous showing on this evening.
