  • PNP into Riedel Burgundy glass (“Root” day): Medium golden to the eyes.

    Consistent notes as previously tasted. Tons of minerality and very very long.

    95-96 points easy.

  • PNP into Riedel Burgundy glass (“Fruit” day): Medium golden to the eyes.

    Magical aromatics of prestine and ripe stone fruits like peaches, apricots. Citrus peels like lemon rinds. Popcorn and some well integrated cool breeze reductive notes that adds to its complexity. Superbly complete wine. OMG.

    96 points right off first pour and even better performing than last tasted.

    2 hours upon opening, 4/5 left: Very nicely young still. Just great reductive notes of lemon rinds, super rich and detailed grapefruit notes.

    2.5 hours upon opening, 2/3 left: More meaty and egg like reduction here. Lots of bright and super high acidity. And some petillance still. Still a long way to full blossom in my view but I like this showing a lot.

    2 hours and 45 mins upon opening, 2/5 left: Ultra pure and elegant Chardonnay here. Super mineral and simply so amazingly long satisfying finish. With more time in bottle and slightly higher temperature this is simply more a complete and satisfying wine at 12% ABV.

    3.5 hours upon opening, 1/5 left: Getting even better with more lemon tea like notes with black tea leafy notes. Really reductive and “drinks like a king” now…

    Almost 4 hours upon opening, 2nd final pour: More about lemon rinds and superior ripe grapefruit notes then the stone fruits at this stage. Superbly clean and high energy and acidity. Oh wow this can last forever in my view. Retain at 96 points.

  • PNP into Spiegelau Burgundy glass (“Fruit” day): Medium golden to the eyes.

    Hint of reduction upfront with chicken broth notes. Peaches with skin, citrus fruits like grapefruits and lazer focused yet mellow in texture. Very much like a nectar at the last drops in the glass with more air.

    Lazer focused with tons of fruits (but in the most subtle way) to support the incredible acidity, a very long finish with signature toast and fruits notes.

    Wow. What an incredible pairing with the Bizot 2010 tasted alongside. 95-96 points.

    3 hours in, 1/5 left: more grapefruits and apricots here. Very amazing as always.
