January 27, 2023 - Honey, toast, cashew nuts, white peach, white roses, the fruit is so well defined on the palate yet every element is harmonious and coming together, no more no less! The peach and honey note carries through the palate and lingering. Perfectly aged!

October 15, 2022 - Incredibly rich, lightly oxidative, compact, powerful. On the dry and less fruity side. 93

June 3, 2021 - Showing oxidation and had lost its freshness. Too bad as there was serious fruit concentration.

June 3, 2021 - Beaune 1er Cru Tasting, in Both Shades (House of Nanda - Chicago IL): 05/06/08/16 vertical. Started out reasonably drinkable, but clearly getting oxidized after 10-15 minutes in glass.
