  December 23, 2023 - robe dorée. Jolis arômes de citron, vanille, toast. Equilibré et ample en bouche, mais peu d'énergie résiduelle. à boire et apprécier maintenant sur sa plénitude

  August 18, 2022 - WWC White Burgundy Blind (Fort Orange Club, Albany, NY): Somewhat oxidized, but still drinkable. Hard to judge.

  January 21, 2022 - PnP. No detailed notes. Nice acidic backbone. Long finish. Moderately complex flavors.

  February 12, 2021 - Open for lunch and evolving during it. Cork in perfect condition. Pale yellow colour, totally translucent. Notes of buckshot, jasmine, ripe citrus, sour cream or hawthorn flower on the nose. Lactic touches too. Elegant and enveloping. Complex and soft at the same time. Like a mini-Chassagne (I know, I know). On the palate it is intense and tasty, with a good density and a refreshing acidity. Balanced but still young to demonstrate its full potential. Certainly a great effort for a generic wine. Leflaive style, this sums it all up. Until the last drop.
  
  Abierta para el almuerzo y evolucionando durante el mismo. Corcho en perfecro estado. Pálido color amarillo totalmente translúcido. Notas a perdigones, jazmín, cítricos maduros, nata agria o flor de espino en nariz. También toques lácticos. Elegante y envolvente. Complejo y suave al mismo tiempo. Como un mini-Chassagne (ya se, ya se). Al paladar se muestra intenso y sabroso, con una buena densidad y una refrescante acidez. Equilibrado pero aun joven para demostrar todo su potencial. Gran esfuerzo para un vino genérico sin duda. Estilo Leflaive, esto lo resume todo. Hasta la última gota.

  May 3, 2020 - This wine or bottle is a total conundrum! I think I should have decanted this for something like an hour as my last glass was my best.
  
  Dark gold color. Nose initial smelled slightly oxidized, but it developed into butterscotch, cherrios, and lime. Wine is brisk and lively. That being said, there isn’t much flavor and first few sips provided nothing. The texture however is great, and for some reason I could drink this all day long even though it lacks flavor. Medium finish.
  
  Not sure what to make of this. Over the hill, in a weird state, or just needs a lot of air??? After all that, it was very drinkable. Not sure if I’m disappointed or not because of what I paid for it.
