Pale lemon color Legs evident, high alcohol Stone fruit, some oakiness, wet wool, Dry, medium plus acidity, medium length Yeasty, lemon zest, some bitterness off finish
This wine falls short of what I expect. Somewhat disappointing.

No formal note. Very youthful still, but less generous and complex than the previous bottle with intense citrus, notes of soil and acacia. Fresh and taut on the palate, very crisp and decent length finish, but just lacking a little buffering and weight this time round.

fantastic vibrancy and enjoyment. the judicious oak is still present and correct, the faintest touch of fennel too. the palate is great, a really round mouth followed by a whiplash acid finish. everything in balance, a really enjoyable wine.

Pale/medium lemon. Intense, still relatively youthful nose showing citrus fruit, apple, hint of spice and floral, kiss of vanilla oak. Medium/full bodied on the palate, this has gained weight and richness but retains lovely freshness, vibrancy and cut, with bright citrus and apple fruit on the initial attack, then some acacia and soil on the impressively long, fresh finish. Lovely.

Pale lemon. Subtle, restrained but quite complex nose with lemon fruit, mineral and acacia notes. Slight whiff of pear. Not much oak here. Medium bodied, taut and fresh in style, subtle citrus fruit, very minerally, crisp acidity, good length minerally finish. This has progressed well and, although it should still open out a little more from here, for me it is just coming in to its drinking window. I like this unadorned style, a lovely village Puligny.

good body, and plenty of length on the finish. slightly oaky, still a little restrained. solid acidity. good stuff and very enjoyable with pasta con vongole. i'll leave for anpther 6 months before trying again.

Light in colour, citrus nose and slight hints of flowers...a little bit of sweet stuff in there. Medium bodied, a little subtle oak but nicely done. Balanced but rather muted. Will hold a little while on the remainder and see if this one sticks it's head out.

Pale lemon. Quite restrained with floral (acacia) and lemon, hardly any oak. Medium bodied with crisp acidity, a slight hint of honey on the medium length finish. Slightly disappointing at this stage but may just be in its shell a little.

Pale golden, hay like hue
Gooseberry, , lemon zest, citrus explosion, tight, high minerality
Honey dew melon, medium (+) finish, tastes like the nose
This wine was far better than the first time i sampled it. GOOD STUFF!

Subtle and elegant nose. The fruit is a bit thin, light citrus with a complexity that accompanies food well.

Four Fine Wines with Mr. Georg Riedel Himself (Cork & Bottle, New Orleans): I agree with the guy who wrote the note before me -- this wine is a bit tight and just starting to spread its wings, but is nothing spectacular at this point. Its best days lie ahead, and it may be phenomenal.
