Medium golden color. Expressive notes of steely and wet stone minerality, citrus, also some honey, flowery notes as well as a touch of vegetal notes too. It's medium-bodied but dense, has still medium-high acidity and a very pretty, mineral-driven finish. This has a lot of finesse and is drinking beautifully right now. I wouldn't push the drinking window much further though.

I didn't take any notes on this wine, but it was drinking very, very nicely. Everything about this seemed to be in place, and it came across as still very young and fresh. Lovely.

Better than the last bottle. Crisp, yet a buttery quality; good acidity. Somehow, though, this seemed to fall a bit short. Very good, but not quite up to snuff.

Light-medium gold with reddish tinge. Restrained, captivating nose of gently sweet fruit with a delicately rich floral-herbal character I associate with this site. Everything in the bouquet translates to the palate impression, with striking freshness -- even more so with air, which also brings out a shadow of well integrated oak. Very fine. Now through 2016.

Quite good, with some subtle oak and spice/white fruit, but the acid was a bit out of whack. A real contrast to the bottle in February '08, which was stellar, and I also preferred the Chassagne Champs-Gain from a few nights earlier.
