Unfortunately this bottle was oxidized, with life and vitality sucked out of it. This obviously should not be the case for a white burg just approaching it's sixth birthday. A shame because this was quite good just two years ago. No score as that would be unfair. Drink up if you have any, my last bottle will be gone shortly and hopefully not down the drain.

Solid precision for a villlage and well constructed for mid-term aging -- recommended. Much life ahead of it - best bet is to drink sometime over the next five+ years before old man oxidation.

Well-balanced lemon-lime flavors, bright and peppy with nice acidity, very palate cleansing and refreshing. Slightly less minerality than average Meursault. Easily beat a similarly priced CA Chardonnay from the same vintage.

Great showing - really nice opening wine. Fruit, depth and balance all aligned.

Very nice. Big fruit for a white burg, good complexity on the midpalate and a balanced finish.
