June 14, 2023 - Superb. Elegant nose as good as white Burgandy gets. A taste of ripe fruit that does not dominate with lemon, salt, crushed stones. A soft, long finish of all tied nicely together. The heat of the vintage does not define the wine. All in balance.

October 13, 2022 - SLDS October 2022: Blind. Yellow florals, toast, spice and lemon. Rich and ripe style, lovely texture and still retains detail beneath the power here. Very young and energetic still.

October 12, 2022 - Rich wine with great balance and persistence. As it warms in the glass, the flavours are revealed - stone fruits, lemon, a touch of honey. Almost tropical fruits here. The weight and texture are mouth-filling. Rich but harmonious. A small amount had the following day was just as good.

September 22, 2022 - Good density and weight, still some zip on finish making it a Chablis but richer. As it warms that profile comes through and was very enjoyable, but fine line between good and too warm.
No notes taken at time. -

June 19, 2022 - Meursault, France. From the restaurant's wine list.
Stunning wine; big, aromatic, grand-cru-level Chablis. Absolutely superb! Nice surprise considering the warmer vintage. Even more enjoyable than the excellent 2016 Montee de Tonnerre from the same producer.
