April 19, 2024 - Fresh with plenty of acid. Almost smokey nose when first opened that dissipated within 15 minutes. After breathing, mouth/nose combined for that salty popcorn experience with extra minerality. One of the best white burgundies we've had in a while. Bring this to the [good] friend who "hates" California chardonnay. Drinking great now, but probably continues to evolve another 5-10 years.

March 10, 2024 - I haven't had this vintage for quite a while. This was very, very good. Better than the 04 Leflaive Chevalier next to it.

March 9, 2024 - Grand Cru White Burgundy Fest: Really good and fresh. Another 04 that was surprisingly young. Clearly one of their best wines, some said better than the Chevy by its side.

July 21, 2023 - Blind tasting. Pale yellow color. Citrus, hazelnut, brioche. Gluey texture. Fresh with good palate tension. Unfortunately, wine was flawed due to oxidized finish (very short finish).

February 10, 2023 - Sesame and orange fruit aroma. Long finish. High acidity. tastes younger than 04…… concentrated in the front of the mouth
