I agree with one of the other posters that this is probably the best Bourgogne Blanc I have had. Really nice for the level. There is a flinty, struck match aroma on the nose that I really like. Tart, too much so for Ann actually. Lemon, citrus, salty, with a slight popped corn and butterscotch note on the finish. Solid acidity. Drinks much better closer to room temperature. I wish I had more.

Quite good. Strong acidity, intense lemon/citrus, almost a touch too much right now. But with some air and warming shows a bit more balance and the fruit broadens. Good mineral finish. Needs food. Probably could take another year or two of age for best results.

One of the best White Bourgogne's I have had. Very nice balance of fruit, mineral and acid. Great mouthfeel and I think this wine is ready for prime time.

Pale yellow. Lovely nose of limestone, citrus oil, acacia flowers, with a hint of sweet spice. Clean entry on the palate with medium weight fruit presence on the mid palate and a broad lingering acid finish. Complete and convincing. 50 + 17 + 15 + 8.

Still showing some signs of old oak in the background, but overall this showed well. Salty and crisp. Good value.
