  April 15, 2023 - Like the other bottles: good enough, unexciting. Don't know what it sells for now, but not worth the same tariff as the rouge Croix Boisee.

  February 25, 2023 - Like my last note. Much better with food than on its own, as I also find to be the case with Baudry's reds. Quite dry. Can't tell if it's approaching the threshold of oxidation but expect to drink my last bottle soon-ish. Feels fully mature.

  I liked this. Just one glass tonight, eager to see what it has to say for itself tomorrow with some food. Well-made, very Baudry. If Baudry sold stock, I'd give them as much of my money to work with as they could use.

  August 31, 2018 - Yellow color, quince, a bit mango, quite developed, rich and buttery, this is the last of 6 white CB10, none of them was extraordinary, too rich for me. The 2012 white CB is the real thing!

  This was still good and enjoyable, but definitely at peak, no need to wait. Nice wooly Chenin nose. Love the acidity on the palate. Clearly an older Chenin but one with nice lift and cut, not a big burly Savennieres.
  
  Found this quite charming but a tab below the price and expectations.
