  April 14, 2024 - Last time I had this it was a bad bottle and the 2014 was stellar. Today the 2014 was awful and the 2015 was singing. This is in its absolute peak prime and best consumed within the year. A very well balanced wine that’s light on its feet. Stellar today.

  April 13, 2024 - PnP - if looking for a quaffable CA chard, this is it. This is pure pleasure like eating a pineapple, peach, guava, yellow apple, pear, star fruit Swedish Fish or JuJu Fruit with light acid - no intellectual thought needed.
  
  Me: Great 1/5 of a glass. Better early on release.
  Wife: Enjoyed this very much

  March 10, 2024 - Killer tonight; yes, some vanilla, butter, but complexity too, with a button mushroom thing and earthy cheese rindy-thing that comes with it after 9 years. Full but not too big and not cloying or overdone. Showing elegant signs of age. More than can be said of the 2006 Bonneau du Martray Corton Charlemeagne which was pre-mox. totally different wine, but wine can't Burgs age any more? B&T's with fish

  February 11, 2024 - Similar review to Soyhead. Just so boring. Recently had a 14 with depth and a long finish. This has a little fruit but otherwise thin and disappointing.

  February 3, 2024 - off vs over the hill
  strong with perceptible heat.
  perhaps better on release? lacks balance, dysjointed.
