June 1, 2019 - Corked. Bummer but luckily at restaurant.
March 23, 2019 - Had this at a restaurant at the recommendation of the sommelier and it did not disappoint. Bright golden in colour and oily in the glass, some popcorn and butterscotch on the nose. But it was all about lifting freshness and acidity on the palate. Not the deepest of Meursaults but what a performance (especially given it is a village)! Racy, no sign of any primox whatsoever, this was whistle clean and went down so well as aperitif and then with the starter of roast cauliflower with cashew milk and black truffle. Was in its sweet spot it felt.
July 25, 2015 - Probably jusssssst over the age it would have been ideal. Golden color, not worryingly dark though. Tons of honey and spicy nutty notes -- almost like an aged white Rhone. Truffley candied apple, kerosene (!), argan oil. With just a bit more freshness and acidity this would have been 94-95+ points.. Still lovely (and paired great with mesquite smoked halibut and roasted buttery corn)
June 8, 2015 - Fabulous. Any hazelnut notes have been absorbed and this is showing more clear than nutty Meursault. It is very pure, very clear, very clean and has fantastic acids and energy. Just lovely. Thanks, Sarah. With Sarah and the Sugarmen at Racines.
June 30, 2012 - This drank really nice, balanced with good acidity and fruit, great texture. I didn't take any notes but off memory, it was easy to prefer this over the Sauzet Combettes
June 11, 2011 - The '05 of this is what started my obsession with white burgundy. This '02 is creamier than the '05, and not as precise...but still very tasty, and holding up well. Rich and creamy caramel, yet still loaded with minerals and lemon/lime citrus. I got a little cucumber....and an amazing green tea spice. Not as much smoky flint and match strike as I usually get in Roulot.....more honeyed and less crispness...from the age. Still...I can drink this stuff ALL DAY! Love it!
April 26, 2010 - Copain Dinner at Craft NYC (New York): Wasn't able to keep detailed notes but this was very good white burg, 91-92+, balanced, restrained, consistent with Roulot bourgognes I've had before in terms of style.
November 1, 2008 - rond en soepel, met wat mineraals en licht het botertje, mooie balans, heeft even z'n tijd nodig
