  February 23, 2021 - Had from 1/2 bottle tonite with dinner. I've had this wine previously on more than one occasion and my notes are very consistent. Nose is a bit reticent this eve. Slight hints of white fruit, flowers and honey. Fuller bodied than I recall, and more fleshy with a very round mouthfeel. There's still a good amount of white fruit, and noticeable acidity and mineralogy. Notes of honey are omnipresent, along with biting acidity. Tart, with almost a briny quality on the very lengthy finish. A bit oakey and hotter than I recall but, overall, a very pleasant white burg that does not disappoint. Still has a few good years ahead

  November 12, 2020 - Beautiful nose with white flowers and almonds. Yellow fruits, almonds, soft oak and nice smoky mineral notes on the palate. Medium bodied with a nice medium- intense but fresh acidity. Very nice fruit acidity balance. Good structure and depth. Half on the mineral and half on the creamy side. Medium long and pleasant finish.
  I really like this Meursault - it has a great balance, isn’t overoaked and is in a perfect drinking spot right now. Drink up within the next 3 years.

  August 2, 2020 - Drank from .375 last nite. Lovely, if understated wine. Generous nose of white fruit, honey and almonds. Medium body, good fruit and acidity level, and nice length. There's some pleasant minerality here, mixed nicely with lots of honey and the still-copious fruit level. Not much oak that I detect. Enjoyable bottle showing very nicely

  July 27, 2020 - Not bad, but showing a fair amount of oxidation. It's 11, so I'm hard-pressed to call it premature oxidation. On the nose: oatmeal, honey, meursault smoke, bruised apple. On the palate, excellent acidity, almond, honey, bruised apple. Slightly bitter peel on the finish. Not in the ballpark of the last showing.
