  May 9, 2024 - Lunch with Neal Martin (The Henri, Washington D.C.): Medium expressive nose displaying elegant white and yellow fruit, honeydew, candied lemon peel, white peach, white flowers, subtle white pepper, rainwater, and limestone. Very good concentration, nicely layered delicious pure white and yellow fruit, elegant yet energetic, beautifully detailed, bright acidity, fine mineral, and a long pure white and yellow fruit driven mineral finish with white flower and white pepper at the end. This is a beautifully balanced energetic wine.

  April 2, 2024 - Super young, but classy already. Couldn't resist opening one. Quite similar to the 2020 Clos de la Hutte, high acidity, flowers, white fruit, melon, very mild on the oak.

  March 29, 2024 - Vosne Romanee tasting (Utregs Wijnhuis): Generously shared by Peter. So young, but so good already. No detailed notes. High acidity, medium finish

  March 23, 2024 - This just arrived and I wanted to check it out. Bracing and dense in what I recognize as the Boudignon and "new Anjou" style. White flowers with a touch of honeydew melon, then all sorts of other citrus and white pitted fruits. Distinctly mineral on the palate and finish. Honestly like great Puligny made from Chenin. Whether that type of thing appeals to you is a matter of taste. I think this is fabulous and drinkable now but will surely improve with time in the cellar. If I can, I'll wait a couple of years to try another bottle.

  March 16, 2023 - Pale lemon colour. Medium and developing nose with ripe green apples, ripe lemon, white peach, wax, salty sea, flint, wet stone and elderflowers. Medium rate of ripe green apples, ripe lemon, white peach, wax, salty sea, chalk and wet stone. Long and dry finish. High acidity. Medium body. A very good Loire Chenin Blanc. Drink now or over the next ten years. Goes well with fish or shellfish.
