April 23, 2014 - Begynner å modnes denne her. Er fortsatt bra med syre igjen, men slik er jo denne årgangen. Er personlig ikke spesielt glad i hvite 2008 og dette gjenspeiles også i min karaktersetting. Er allikievel en helt ok vin.

April 8, 2014 - Upon release the acidity was off the charts. There are different types of acidity too. It was electric lime juice to me. Then, it had more of a Chassagne nose. Both the acidity and the Chassagne-ness have calmed down. It might have been better a year or two ago, hard to tell. Good now, more golden, still lime and tangerine or mandarin orange on nose, with a touch of white Burgundy "lanolin" and "hay" aromas. Still good acidity (more in check), rounder on the palate, nice mineral, secondary aromas. Prefer it now to it a few years ago. Good for what is just an AOC Bourgogne Blanc with clever marketing! Clearly deserves slightly higher ranking though. Buy again, not sure.

November 26, 2013 - Acidity makes this wine so alive. Lives for next 5 years easily. This has medium yellow color with strong tangerine, citric nose. Looks more like poully fousse.
On the mouth has strong body, like a mersault, but citric and fruty notes as a montrachet.
very good wine. I would say requires food pairing for now given the acidity. -

Octopus risotto. Also suggest seafood pasta. Any seafood dish wish some carbs to fight the acidityWho Likes This Wine
