Good, but not quite at the level that the price of this commands. It's certainly very pinot dominant on the palate and nose -- quite rich with a pronounced mushroomy quality. Richer textured, but somehow the dosage feels a little less than necessary to really fill out the bones of this wine.

Dirty and funky. Way too mushroomy too.

Base vintage 2013. Disgorged July 2021, 3 g/L dosage. Despite the relatively low dosage, this certainly has a palate presence that I really enjoy. Rounded and richer, but at the same time, bright laser-focussed white fruit here. Made in a bigger style the way Egly does, and very enjoyable for it.

Really didn't like this at all. It felt very incomplete and disjointed -- high acid like a brut zero, but also with sweetness from dosage that felt wholly unintegrated with the other part of the wine. Kind of thin and acidic, and sugary sweet at different times, like drinking two wines at the same time. Head-scratcher.

French bottle, but capsule top. One of the best showings of this that I've had. Clean, bright, full, with plenty of Chablis salinity. Savoury with just the right squeeze of citrus here. Electric and exciting to drink. It's really hard for me to grok Dauvissat because some bottles can be so good, but some bottles can be so mediocre.

Excellent stuff. Doesn't show the ripeness of the vintage. Some reduction here, but this comes across as relatively sedate. It's not screechy with the acidity nor reduction. This has a lovely light touch on the palate, and has good Chassagne richness (the vintage certainly helps). A touch waxy, but never overbearing or heavy.

Eh? Didn't understand this at all. Kind of comes off as a non-descript white wine. Neutral in all respects.

Something a little too natty with this, so it tasted a little off for my taste. Nowhere as good as the Táganan. This has some modest salinity but also some off notes that really detract from the overall quality of the wine for me. High acidity.

Wow, absolutely outstanding for such peripheral terroir. Rich and balanced, with gorgeous white fruit and intensity here. No reduction, just a good, honest bottle of rich, old-school chardonnay. A seriously grand value of a bottle of Burgundy in a night where we all were complaining about the value proposition in a Four Yorkshiremen sort of way.

Seriously good chardonnay. Comes across richer than the French style, with more fruit on the nose and palate, but it's not for want of acidity nor balance. Clearly identifiable as New World with that fruit profile, but counterweighted by the typical Ceritas minerality and acidity. Great stuff.

Clearly in the richer style of the Keller of old, and I think the vintage played a part of this as well. Still, this is minerally and bright, but a bit big-boned for a feinherb. It's not as crisp and elegant as more recent vintages. That said, this is still pretty impressive in its stature, though I do prefer the modern iterations more.

Kind of a weird wine. Doesn't come off particularly riesling-like but it's also not like any other grape either. Good minerality here, but it's just a bit of a baffling wine to be honest. Not really sure what to make of it. That said, it was actually pretty good.

chardonnay - 30 to 60 year old vines - vineyard blend - La Pellerine, Le Crêt, Arteau - terroir - blue Lias clay on Bathonien limestone - 17 months in old oak barrels - pH 3.11 - free sulfites <6mg/L - total 12 mg/L. Classic Labet, with just that classic reductive winemaking style and a fair bit of white wine volatility. That said, this still tastes might clean and bright for my palate, and is unmistakably Labet with a slight hint of sotolon, plenty of acidity, and still a good amount for white fruit.

Very much what Montrachet should be -- inordinately thick and rich, oily, and opulent. A very dense texture on the palate, with an intensity that comes off almost bitter because there's so much of it. Relatively low in acid, but it's made up for in the form of the sheer amount of extract. Huge fan of white Burgundy made before chardonnay these days. It's way more opulent and rustic.

#05-21, 9.5% abv. Clean and crisp, with that light-bodied raciness that you should expect from Kabinett. Not particularly complex though -- a good drinking wine and not much more. But it's fairly priced and certainly shows a high pedigree.

Very nice nose here -- perfumed, strawberry-adjacent, and almost like a good, weighty summer rosé. The palate's a bit thin, and there's definitely a slight underripeness here that leaves this feeling a bit empty. One of those wines where the nose is much better than the palate. Quite pleasant -- better as a chilled summer red.

Quite light, though in contrast with the WongAmat, this was a bruiser. Very pretty, raspberry-accented red fruit, with plenty of acidity. Light and perfumed, and very drinkable now.
