  March 5, 2023 - Double decanter for 3 hours.
  
  Light, elegant and perfumey.
  I felt it was in a transition zone. The fruit was beginning to fade but hadn’t yet started developing the tertiary notes.
  
  In general I think 2012s are dinking so well.

  March 4, 2023 - 2023 La Paulee Offline with the NYC Crew (The Bar Room at the Modern): A powerful wine that didn't really budge over the course of the evening.
  
  On the nose, this wine exhibits stemmy spice and a hint of herbaceousness, i.e. thyme and sage. The fruits are dark red to blue; black cherry, black currant, black raspberry. Tannins are grippy and young. Medium acidity and good mouthfeel/texture. Finish is long and earthy with that herbaceousness coming back into the picture.
  
  Over the course of a 2+ hour dinner, I felt like this wine changed very little. While it is drinking very well, I wonder if it will have more to say with a few more years in the bottle? I would hold.

  December 12, 2021 - The '12 Chambertin is a baby and was pretty closed off, but seems to have all the stuffing to be an incredible wine down the road. The '12 Rossignol Trapet Chambertin that I tasted last year was much more open than this bottle.
  
  On the nose, I found cool tones of black raspberry fruit, exotic spices, roasted meat, orange peel, earth, and a hint of espresso. The range of aromatics the wine showed over the course of the day was complex, but required coaxing to appreciate. On the palate, I found dark red to black raspberry fruit, citrus peel, spices, and smoke, with red raspberry, roast meat, citrus peel, and spices on the finish. The texture of the wine was very smooth with fine grained tannins appearing on the finish.
  
  I'm going to plan to give this another 5+ years before digging in again. No real sign of development in this bottle.

  December 3, 2021 - Tasted blind. Initially closed, not giving up much. Floral, light, elegant, almost translucent color. I guessed Latricieres due to the cool, composed manner, delineated, precise. Opened up more and more developing notes of whole clusters and . Best after 2025. 95+
