Tried two bottles; one was divine, a real powerhouse of lemon zest and minerality, the other had a bit of POX that changed the tonality of the wine - made it less precise and oddly richer. The better bottle still had years of positive evolution while the lesser one was clearly on the decline.

Still super tight and unforgiving at the start but with some air and a lot of time, this eased up beautifully. Hold on to these, they will be beautiful.

Par C. Cardonna, O'thym Nez sur l'élevage, très bourguignon. Un peu brut de coffre à ce stade mais j'aime beaucoup son équilibre. Pas très jasant ce midi là mais du potentiel, à revoir dans 5 ans. 88+ pts

Lots of dry extract here with elements of citrus and minerality - this is big and will need time to reveal its power and elegance.
