November 20, 2021 - Wine Tasted at Acker Auction (Marea - New York NY): From magnum. Popped-and-poured, this kept opening and unfolding before our eyes. Brilliant richness and precision at the same time, with orchard fruit, mint, fresh herbs and faint tropical fruit hints all unfolding in wonderful combination and nuance. Wow!

January 29, 2021 - DRC GE Lunch: Served blind I guessed 1978 Leroy Montrachet. The color was so dark and the fruit so mellow, but despite all that the completeness and majesty of Montrachet could be found. Sweet wine with cinnamon aromas. Enjoyable as it was, the reveal was shocking. Just had this wine last month and it bore absolutely no resemblance to today's oxidized bottle. I enjoyed it, but remain quite frustrated by the high oxidation rate in Ramonet's Montrachet.

December 18, 2020 - Considerably riper than the 99. Where the 99 starts lightly and builds to a tremendous finish, the 02 is big from start to finish, albeit a bit broader and more viscous. If the 99 is power without weight, the 02 is power with weight. In any other tasting this would be a champion, but the 99 showed more precision and delineation.

February 28, 2018 - Focused nose with fine petrol notes. I didn't love the finish but still preferred this to the '07. 94+
