Such a stark difference with the 2010 Boillot Bienvenues drunk alongside. This is buttery and rich but for my tastes flabby. The over fatty style of californian/australian style. I don't need to describe it because you know what I mean. The California palates loved this. The aging process has made it fat but not oxidized. Points though for lasting 16 years old without going off the cliff!

Enjoyable, but probably past the optimal time for consumption. Some signs of oxidization but acidity, minerality, and lemon/petrol/oak all still present and in good balance.

Nice but on its last legs. Almost Montrachet-like now...
