good richness here as it warms, and not oxidized to our delight, but perhaps advanced?... well it is 24 years old. the lack of acidity keeps it from being more interesting.

M&PD Zoom Tasting night of following white Burgs and red Bordeaux:
2013 François Raveneau Blanchot 2011 François Raveneau Valmur 2008 Vincent Dancer Chevalier-Montrachet 2000 Domaine Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Pucelles 1990 Château Troplong Mondot 1990 Château Montrose 2009 Château Smith Haut Lafitte
Wow - burley and balanced at the same time. This bottle was just perfect. A nose of so many flavors: butterscotch, spice, mineral, moss, oak and salt. The entire group could not stop raving about this wine. My favorite of the whites.

200 Burgundy Grand Crus from vintage 2000, 4-day blind tasting (Singapore): Wow, fresh, lemon rind, crisp, rich, mineralic, ripe and racy at the same time. A very grand white Burg.
