1636. Savory and mineral over the slight hint of white fruit that is only revealed with air. Not my favorite style and different from the signature oxidative house style. 91
This bottle is incredibly tight with yoghurt flavors and very little house style. Overripe fruit underneath. I think it is a phase for the vintage that they are just awkward now; perhaps time will help. 90
Classic LMHB on the nose (across the street), clear 82ness, high toned acidity, with air very opulent and clean aromatics. Somewhat dirty towards the end palate, not sure if bottle variation? 94 nose, 93 palate. 93

Silky, but the 96 acidity is very present. Less strong in showing that last bottle, decanted too short, but easily WOTN. 94+
