March 9, 2018 - Incredible bottle that has aged gracefully throughout the years. The blockbuster vintage definitely shows through the rich, golden color and thick long legs. On the nose, the oak is very prominent, more so than the citrus fruits and pear that lie in the background. Surprisingly, it smells a lot more like an aged Cali chard as the butter, honey, and nut profile is quite forward. On the palate, the wine is still surprisingly fresh as it demonstrates racy acidity and streaks of mineral. The primary fruits of citrus take over and dominate over the oak and toasty vanilla overtones. The wine is structured, precise and boasts the generosity and voluptuousness of the Meursault commune. Some alcoholic heat still present nonetheless. The finish is toasty, buttery and nutty with a sweetness to boot. This is an incredibly wonderful biodynamic wine.

April 27, 2014 - Drinking perfectly now. Beautiful wine with excellent balance and acidity with a background nutty flavor. Paired this with a pan seared Bronzino served over a light cream sauce and this was outstanding!!!!

April 5, 2013 - Light to medium straw like/gold color. Lemony, citrusy nose. Good fruit on the palate, oak still prominent, perhaps a bit too much so as it slightly overshadowed the remaining fruit. I got lots of butter too in the mix. A pleasant enough wine though I expected more. Drink sooner rather than later
