September 10, 2014 - Starts out awfully stern and humorless - the vinous equivalent of a McLaughlin Group episode, minus the bilious outbursts. But with merciful speed this softens and adds some white flowers to the mouthful of gray granite. I see in Meadows's note this bottling sees no wood, and while there's sufficient heft here for 1er Cru palate presence, it's a wine of fairly narrow shoulders that after a time more resembled aged Muscadet than it did the other white Burgs with which it shared the table. Stands up to lobster with clarified butter, but just barely, and more in contrast than complement.

September 6, 2012 - Visiting Domaine Moreau-Naudet (Chablis, Burgundy, France): Tasted a bit after the 2009 version of the same wine. To my knowledge, these two vintages are not totally dissimilar so perhaps one could expect the 09 to be something like this in 4 years: Absolutely charming and already a bit evolved nose, giving complex fruit character and interesting minerality. Whereas 09 still feels a bit unsettled, this is in a beautiful state right now. Well balanced and very delicious right now!

May 19, 2012 - Very pretty. Creamy texture, white fruit notes, only hints of citrus, rocky minerality. A little soft. Longish finish.

January 24, 2012 - Chablis dinner with xhoser (Mykha's, Glen Ellyn): Flint, mineral and salt notes with flavors of chalk, lime, apple and sea water. Would have liked a bit more acidity.
