October 12, 2022 - EL Birthday Dinner (The Garden Table at Le Pavillon): Served blind next to the 83 Leflaive BM and the 82 Coche Dury Meursault. Obviously Chablis. Obviously Raveneau. Many questions on age.
Looks young in the glass. Drinks young but doesn't have the intensity that is off-putting for me with most Chablis. The flavors had room to show and they were a good mix of citrus and honey. The length was amazing.
I guessed late 90s. No one guessed early 90s or 90. Impressive bottle -

December 28, 2017 - Drank alongside the '85 Blanchot. Drinking very well with a nose I could sniff all day. So rich on the palate but with so much honeyed minerals and acid that all was in harmony.
