Double blind. Nice layering in the nose with classic orchard fruit and minerality. Very clean and pure aromas. Nice richness and density. I was thinking 1er. My 2nd favorite in the flight.

Double blind. Seemed to be the 'youngest' in this blind horizontal. A wow nose with intense, full aromatics. The palate is rich and dense with matchstick reduction throughout, that was complementary to the fruit and lemon-oil notes. Long. My wine of the flight.

Double blind. The most muted and ripest of the blind trio. The aromatics here were brooding and the palate was richer, riper and seemingly more mature. I thought this might be an '03 1er white burg, FWIW.

Darn impressive for a 22+ White Burg. Boastful nose is impressive for an appellation wine of this age -- roasted nuts and mature orchard fruit. Fruit is still lush and fresh. The palate is vibrant. Not the most complex but provides a lot of pleasure and interest.

A simply epic nose that screams Vosne with intoxicating macerated black cherry and intense, powerful Vosne spice. The palate is similarly enthralling and delicious, if a little less exciting than the nose. Seriously impressive and drinking so well right now.

Kind of muddled on the nose with tired/brooding black cherry and earth. The palate got better with some time, but this never hit the highs or pleasure of the '15 Clos de Chateau.

My favorite of the three 2017s. Super intense black cherry and spice, that definitely has a tie/likeness to the Liger-Belair Vosne wines. The palate is rich and intense. More richness than I typically find in Oregon, but precise and balanced. Vibrant. Impressed.

The aromas here are bigger and dense -- not yet delineated. The palate is more approachable with so much rich and lush black cherry yet lively and bright. Intense spice-filled finish, once again drawing out some connection to the LB wines.

The nose here is brooding, subdued and darker. Big, rich and dense on the front end with plenty of spice in the finish. Seems very raw at this stage.

Far preferred this to the brooding 2017 served side-by-side. A bigger and riper vintage for sure. Aromas are big and intense with smokey, ripe black cherry and spice. Rich with bold, bold spice -- all in a lively, ethereal frame.
