Bottle and fill excellent, cork had a little black fungus under the capsule, but was solid. This bottle was still young with a bright yellow color and took awhile to open up. It was rather dull for the first hour, but then opened up and became a lovely Meursault. Very much in the Jobard style with excellent acidity. No hurry if this bottle is typical.

Golden color. Slightly madeirized nosewith notes of hazelnuts and overripe pineapples. Sweet and fairly complex with very nature flavors of brown butter and hazelnuts. Finishes a bit madeirized. This was a lovely wine that's now past its best. 84

Some Wine Tasted at the Zachys La Paulée Auction; 3/7/2019-3/8/2019 (Le Bernardin Prive - New York NY): Small glass, brief note. Wow, shocking upside surprise. Very ripe (of course), but so fresh and dense with an impressively long finish.

Oxidized. Shame as I've drunk 5-6 bottles of this win in the past 2-3 years that have been fantastic.
