Saturday, January 9, 2021 - Very good, much more open than the 2017, def some of the reduction that made it a Coche ringer has been lessened as discussed lately (just like Coche) but not totally removed, I know some don’t love it but I happen to.... I poured a glass or two from a Coravin one night then opened the rest 5 days later and it was markedly different, more open and the wide range is because of a ripe pineapple note that emerged after it was open 2 hours or so that was really unusual for this producer and my concern of buying ‘18s in general. I know there are good ones, I’ve tried a few but sappy, ripe white burgundy is off putting so maybe it doesn’t go that direction ultimately and holds the purity of fruit it started with. Bought a case so tried one to get a feel. 90-94 for me, may be great some day if it doesn’t get too tropical.
