December 25, 2023 - Apologies to the afflicted, but not a hint of premox so far from our case. Cork not great, but wine still excellent. Pretty much as previous notes, still more tropical than mineral.
October 22, 2021 - Old OG Napa Cabs (James & Carrie's, Northern Burbs, Mpls): oxidized
October 22, 2021 - Outstanding Old World Napa Cabs: PnP - This bottle showed a nose of wet grass and nothing much on the palate (originally too cold), but after a little while there emerged some citrus and a little minerality, but still very diluted. Not sure if the wine was flawed, it was a bad bottle or it is just too past its prime, but I don't feel comfortable scoring this wine.
August 3, 2019 - Premox. Again.
April 8, 2018 - Oxidised
January 9, 2018 - IWFSC Dinner #831 (El Ideas): Opened from IWFSC cellar -- about a 50% failure rate to get a few sound bottles for this dinner. Moderate nose is still quite young with crisp white fruits and flint. With air the nose adds some richness and depth. Very crisp white fruit on the palate, with plenty of zingy acidity. Quite youthful and bracing. Seems like it needs time, but who can deal with the ticking time bomb of pre-mox?
December 7, 2017 - Another excellent bottle. Deep gold color. Classic Chablis - wet rock, salt and some stone fruit and lemon. Bright despite the color but with 15 years of flavor. Wish I had more.
September 23, 2017 - Premox. Not as intense as in some other Fevre GC bottlings, but there nonetheless.
May 18, 2017 - Still holding well. Light gold color. Chalk, stone with white florals. Slight petrol. Rich, but still bright enough. Classic old Chablis flavors. Excellent.
January 24, 2017 - Severely Premoxed.
