  December 10, 2022 - Lovely complex sous-bois nose with rich strawberry fruit and hints of graphite minerality & smoke.
  Gorgeous sweet fruit on the palate, rich & elegant, balanced, lovely mineral lift on the finish.
  A beautiful wine, in amazing condition. None of the above can express the experience of drinking an old wine like this: there’s a sense of soft completeness, everything being absolutely resolved.

  June 7, 2018 - 2006 RC and 2006 DRC Montrachet dinner - Stanley Cup Final (Proof Restaurant - Washington DC): At some point, the party must stop, even for me. Too much soy in the glass. However almost empty glass smells hauntingly beautiful, almost yellow fruit, light caramel, Vosne spices, truffle and sous bois. Should be served in small pours, needs plenty of air.

  March 15, 2013 - Love 64's. Pale red with some browning. Red fruits, explosive. Silk in a glass. Soft, elegant with intense flavors.

  March 1, 2010 - Also purchased on release. I feel like this suffered since it came after the RC. It was surprisingly young and I wasn't the only one at the table who thought so. It was definitely much younger than the RC. The nose was a little more muted but I got dried cranberries, mushrooms, tart berries, and tea. The wine still had a lot of tension and if you have a well-stored bottle, it isn't time for this beautiful wine. The palate had the tension I mentioned but the fruit was pleasant. It had many of the nice aged burg characteristics of the RC but was more subtle. I loved it but it didn't permeate the room like the RC or really move me. Amazing nonetheless. ****1/2
