    September 26, 2021 - Started with some barnyard and opened up into a very interesting wine with complexity. Lemon, slate, even some mushroom? Acidity still in evidence. Primary fruit has faded but a great wine today.

    June 9, 2021 - Last bottle for me. Cork in great shape, nose with lemon curd, poached apple/pear, slightly oxidative, palate is the same with good acidity, a bit one dimensional and lacking the minerality to bring it up a notch but very good none the less. Paired with Dungeness Crab and did very well throughout dinner.

    March 24, 2021 - Slightly oxidized. Disappointed because really interesting except for the slightly off taste.

    July 16, 2019 - Had this blind with a number of other white burgundies in the summer of 2019. It was smooth and balanced and (as was revealed) a bit older, but certainly still alive and kicking. Overall, however, a little disappointing given the price.

    From that blind tasting, below were my rankings (and the group's rankings):

    1 (2) 2012 Hubert Lamy Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Clos de la Chateniere
    2 (3) 2016 Domaine Bernard Millot Puligny-Montrachet Les Corvées des Vignes
    3 (1) 2017 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Saint-Aubin Le Banc
    4 (4) 2015 Maison Harbour Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru en Remilly
    5 (7) 1999 Maison Roche de Bellene Meursault 1er Cru Charmes Collection Bellenum
    6 (5) 2013 Rapet Père et Fils Corton-Charlemagne
    7 (6) 2017 Walter Scott Chardonnay X-Novo Vineyard

    September 19, 2018 - 91-92 Again nose seemed a touch muted, took a little time to come out. Decent acidity, nicely aged, similar to bottle opened a few years back. Had next to a 12' Ente Bourgone which may have overshadowed this a bit. Still a very enjoyable, well aged, white burg.
