  December 10, 2023 - very thin after opening. Needs a lot of time to gain weight. At its best it shows as a classic Cote de Nuits. On day three it turned to dull and light weight. So I scored it from 88 to 91 back to 89 in between 60 hours.
  Bottle variation seem to be extreme.

  November 24, 2023 - PNP. Right out of the gate you get a mouthful of classic Gevrey dirt. Only secondary and tertiary flavors follow, but what flavors they are. Truffle, shiitake, boysenberry, lychee and more. Fully mature in the middle of the window. After an hour the wine didn’t budge an inch. Intellectual tour de force. Have never been a big fan of Ponsot but this bottle reminds me, again, that there are no great wines, only great bottles. Magnificent.

  January 17, 2020 - During a Paulee dinner, so only brief impressions. Rearely like this producer. Rustic with drying tannins. Glad he retired, hopefully the next gen changes the wine making here.
