Strangely I found this to be out of balance and overly acidic tonight, in contrast to a recent prior bottle. Felt like it needs more time to integrate.

67PM dinner: I think Bernard Moreau handles warmer vintages superbly and this was a great example. Wouldn't have guessed a warm vintage with its vibrant yellow fruit, fantastic tension and acidity. Shame I didn't buy more of his wines before prices went up.

Tasting at Domaine Bernard Moreau (Chassagne-Montrachet): A highly expressive wine already. Full intense aromas of sweet orchard fruit, florals, mineral and chalk. The palate has rich, juicy mouth coating orchard fruit. Bright and energetic even with the ripeness of fruit. 91-93

Burgundy, Day 4 (Beaune, France): One of my more preferred bottlings today, and I notated this to make sure I try and find a few bottles of it. This is the vineyard that produces the wine with the lowest pH, and I think this vintage that may well be true too. This was picked in September and didn't finish fermentation until July. I really like the relatively mineral and linear profile here, and I think this could even show the raciness of Puligny more so than the richness of Chassagne.

Beautiful balance and precision. Checks pretty much all the boxes except perhaps depth. Very nice.
