August 1, 2021 - Had with grilled lobster. Still at its peak if cellared properly from youth. Wonderful rich nose. Silky and elegant. Rich with butter and hints of fruit. Let warm up to approx 62 degrees to get more of the complex notes etc. Still has a few years left.

January 27, 2020 - This remains one of the best Chardonnay producers on the planet. I am not convinced the single vineyard wines are worth the premium to the regional blends such as Les Noisetiers and frankly the price is now crazy. Pale in the glass but with a clean slightly oily nose. From attack to long after taste loads of power balanced with mineral and acid. All so harmonious

May 28, 2018 - full bodied and complex. May be at full maturity / nearing end of bottle life. Very enjoyable.
