A flight of 4 Chardonnays: Tasted Chanson Pere & Fils Meursault Village 2013 (developed in the glass, ended up beeing the best of the 4. Perfect right now - classical Meursault, rich but not too rich with stone fruit, toast and balanced acidity. Drink it now! - it's not getting better in the coming years. 91/100). Darviot-Perrin Meursault-Perrieres 2005 (too old and premox! Bad luck). Instead I chose J.M Boillot Puligny-Montrachet 1. cru Les Combottes 2008 (tasted it 3 times before with different results. Based on the tastings my recommendation is: Drink it now. 2 of the bottles, including this had past it's best. It was ok, but oxidation definitely in processs. 90/100). The last bottle was Kistler Noiseteers 2016 (Richer than the Bourgogne bottles, which were more elegant. 90/100).

This bottle was more developed than the one I drank 4 months ago which was on the very top. Classical P-M but with beginning oxidative notes in the background (sherry like). Drink now not suitable for further ageing

Perfect, on the very top. High acidity, apricot, peach, lemon, honey, toast and butter. Classic rich but distinct and well defined 1.cru Bourgogne from P-M. I love it. No premox at all.

This is in an absolutely great spot at the moment. The scents are straight hazelnuts, dried apricots and honey. Flavors are immense: apple pie, graham crackers, pineapples, rocks, still clean acid but a defined richness. This is what White Burgundy is about. Can it hold up more? I’d say the acid provides another 3-7 years, but it’s so good already.

Well stored bottle but unfortunately too far into decline, if you have bottles its time to open and hope for the best
