    September 21, 2023 - Tasted double blind from a small capped bottle as part of a zoom tasting. Been sitting a while in the glass. Nose is very fruity - almost juicy. New oak? Smells very sweet. Almost syrupy? A bit exotic and vanilla? Oak. Some sweet spices / Hard to tell what this from the nose but the palate makes me think pinot - fruit with some spices; tart and medium bodied with some crispness to it. Feels like some new oak thickens this and makes it grainier. Went with PInot Noir and figured it was from a fairly modern Burgundy producer from the last 10 years or so. Didn’t get formal scores. When I tried it on day two it was much more autumnal and not holding together all that well. Looking back I could see some of the autumnal notes of leaves and such from day 1. Probably 15-16/20.

    November 19, 2017 - La Confrérie des Chevaliers du Tastevin Dinner (Table Six Restaurant in The Kemble Inn, 2 Kemble Street, Lenox, MA): Strong barnyard nose slowly blows off leaving an appealingly earthy nose. Ripe red fruit and some complexity. Goes quite with with the fish dish, maybe because of the tomato and spice. Should drink well for 5-10 years more.

    November 15, 2015 - A bit fruit but pretty watery. Hollow and disjointed almost like an entry level burgundy. You can tell that the vintage isn´t good. 88 minus

    April 6, 2015 - Lots to come here - still much too young, but with air, some of the future is revealed; there is good core of cool, elegant, sweet fruit here, very Chambolle, indeed, and a vibrant acidity. Very good balance, a wine en danseuse - this needs a couple of years at least, though. (in Weehawken Street with AD - who loved it).
