sb Light gold colored Bright white grape flavors, light bodied Balanced lowish acidity, but quite pleasing; blind, I thought this was a delightful young pinot Blanc or young Macon rather than a 10 year old Beaune 1er. In context, this seems almost disappointing given its station, but quite charming and so young appearing. Drink or hold YFS
With an hour of air this gained a bit more stature.

Notes of beeswax, a touch of butter, some green melon, citrus, some spices. It's medium-bodied, balanced and has medium+ acidity. It ends on a touch of bitterness, but not disturbing. A nice Beaune Blanc but showing a little less impressive than at the domaine a few weeks ago. Maybe it needs some more age.

Beeswax, pear, citrus and vanilla. Some nice richness but still balanced. Pleasant drinking with a bit of oak but not overpowering. I think it is drinking very well right now. I would not keep much longer.

Pleasant floral bouquet. Excellent balance of fruit and minerals with a touch of oak. Has a long finish. Producer says it is a blend of 5 premier crus. Which no doubt contributes to its rich and somewhat angular flavors. Really needs more time to evolve and has great potential. (Bouchard Pere dinner)

A little more buttery than I had hoped. Pretty crisp. More butter and oak than fruit.
