February 25, 2024 - Pear and nut notes. A bit acidic but not too unbalanced.

January 31, 2024 - I had the right occasion to open another bottle this week.
Nose:Tarragon, pistachio, ripe lemon, lime zest, cottage cheese, mineral.
Palate: creamy, but the citrus flavors also make this taste refreshing.
Finish: long, acids starts at the back of the tongue right after swallowing and continues to build for several seconds sustaining the citrus flavors.1 person found this helpful Comment -

December 14, 2023 - There are softer, buffered textures to the wine, somewhat similar to Lamy. There’s good focus, purity, ample and rounded fruit that shows honeysuckle, touch of green fruit with the yellow and other floral elements, but ends up feeling a bit generic. Doesn’t have the energy and tension of the Bachelet-Monnot. Instead it trades on being pleasant, easy to enjoy and hiding its alcohol pretty well. Got a chance to revisit day 2 on this one with same notes. Thought the Domaine’s Bourgogne was a bigger success in ‘20

October 15, 2022 - I opened a bottle in order to taste it side by side with the Les Mazures cuvee. These are both amazing wines that have a place in your glass and in your cellar. Les Mazures has a little more fruit density and minerality. They will both make great wines over 4-6 years.
