  Still drinking somewhat beautifully. Opening saline minerality retreats a little on night 2 to let the quince and lemons demonstrate more heft, but minerals reassert on night 3. It's sophisticated, but I don't know that it's more than sophisticated

  Premier souper à Beaune (Maison du Bastion à Beaune): Une énorme surprise que ce magnum!
  
  Moi qui ne fait pas vieillir les vins du domaine, je vais devoir réviser cette position sur les blancs.
  
  Ce magnum montre une très belle évolution, c’est plus minéral, la finale a développé une très belle complexité. Un vin frais et précis, d'une profondeur insoupçonnée. Un pur délice et sans doute le meilleur blanc du domaine que j’ai pris. Magnifique. 92-93 pts

  Holding up well. Nice minerality and punchy fruit. Some complexity emerging.

  Very oyster like minerality, high acidity, great fruit concentration.
