    May 8, 2023 - All wine, no poker (Lincoln, Mass.): Served with morels on toast: This was a gift from Karl Wee, ridiculously generous, and much appreciated by the assembled hooligans. A very elegant wine, with restrained fruit, some spiciness, brightness.

    January 23, 2023 - Nose exhibits earth, forest, and dark fruit. It has richness on the palate but lacking finesse. Prefer the 99 Potel Petit Monts on the side.

    September 28, 2017 - I wish I could get on board with the widespread praise (below) but sadly this was a spoiled bottle, heavy on the mercaptans.

    February 12, 2016 - Fireworks in the glass! This wine has finally entered its prime drinking window. Fully mature nose very similar to its neighbor, La Tache, with tremendous Malconsorts weight. Lovely mature floral notes combined with classic Vosne spice on the nose. As good as a classic Malconsorts can be from an outstanding vintage which is evident in the ripeness and weight of the fruit. It's not La Tache but this bottle was close with La Tache being more complete in every facet. Still this bottle was absolutely stunning! Wow wine.

    February 21, 2014 - Dark almosted roasted aromas of dense black fruits with underlying baking spice. Big fruit weight with nice rich mouthfeel, a bit riper than expected, yet has some interesting nuances. Good finish, but touch compact. Seems to be far from peak and a touch rustic.
