Wonderfully rich with plenty of apple, nut butter, and butterscotch with intense concentration. Great now, nicely complex and layered, maybe further upside, but maybe this is it. Really great now.

The third of 3 bottles purchased at auction and all 3 were stellar. This was the second wine of the evening for a milestone birthday dinner at the Inn at Little Washington. Beautiful citrus and stone fruits, excellent acidity and paired wonderfully with several seafood courses.
Wines: Krug Grande Cuvée NV; 2010 Bonneau du Martray Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru; 2010 Clos des Lambrays Grand Cru; 2009 d'Angerville Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Ducs; 1989 Chateau Montrose; and 1988 Chateau d'Yquem (750 ml).

Dezente Nase, leicht buttrig, Blütennoten, reifer Apfel, still, tiefgründig, Creme Brulé, sehr komplex. Cremig im Gaumen, grosse Harmonie, vollmundig, rund, mit gut verpacktem Säurenerv, top verpacktes Holz, aromatisch mit viel Länge, Schmelz und nussige Rückaromen. Grosses Chardonnay Kino.

Judgement of Eagan (Jason P's, St. Paul, MN): Pale gold color. PNP, drank a glass plus over an hour plus. This was a stellar example of this wine. The nose shows tons of freshness, Anjou pear, kumquate, tarragon, anise and bright mineral notes. The palate is crystalline with its minerality and focus; Meyer lemon, lemon, panna cotta testure, lemon zest, elegant and lifted, long and tangy, this just resonates. Gorgeous, and for me, the clear winner over a very good '13 Marcasssin. Group vote was 5-4 for the Bonneau. 95+pts.

Decanted. Oily, some Silex impression upon opening, yellow and tropical fruit. Good weight and impact if not all that interesting. 93
