March 14, 2022 - Quite pure, touch of almond, medium finish. Decent, if a little neutral.

February 27, 2022 - A real surprise this, much better than I thought it was going to be. Distinctly burgundy, but much closer to the Cote d'OR than I had expected. Racier than I'd anticipated, but which gave way to an underlying richness that was really pleasant. Reminded me of a Meursault actually - that rounded gras element that really coats the palate. From a 375ml. Lovely way to finish the weekend.

January 11, 2022 - Slight change of style to the usual white burgs I drink from the cote d or at this price point. Comparable to those wines; Good qpr. Would buy again. Can see some more age may help (even 1 yr on from review below that notes this), but I don’t think I’d wait and I’ll buy some more of this vintage of this wine to drink this year.

November 4, 2020 - Young and quite primary but not harsh or difficult. Pronounced green citrus notes, bright acidity. Lacked a bit of breadth on the palate and was a bit singular in a way. Good 89 for now but really needs a bit more age.
