    November 11, 2012 - Not oxidized but fully mature. Nice nutty meursault flavor. Still some ok. Distinctly improved as it warmed to room temp. These older verget wines are a Bit of a crapshoot but the unoxidized ones are really good.

    June 1, 2011 - Not oxidized...so better than expected. Still has nice ripe fruit showing on the nose, less so on the palate, which has mostly faded. Some nutty flavors started to emerge after open a while. Also still quite acidic. Drink up.

    January 15, 2011 - one of the best mature white burgundies I have had. Just delicous - medium gold and medium body, loaded still wtih rich fruit and very complex. Could be 5 years old. It shows what a roll of the dice these wines are - the last bottle I had (2 years ago ) was undrinkable - this one could go 10 more years.
