Kept its promise. I'd forgotten just how dry and racy my beloved 2014 white Burg vintage was! Getting more honeyed and grilled nuts on nose; more textured; more tidepool aromas. So great! I'd guess these are peaking, but will hold for a year or two.

Absolutely delicious. Lemon with tangerine nuances. Moved to grapefruit after an hour. Medium /light body. Moderate finish... not sharp, but lively and good mouth feel.

Ripe fruit, hint of smoke, yellow fruit, some stone fruit, touch of peach and spice in finish. Medium+ acidity, medium body. At a very good spot now, drank even better on day two.

This is quite tasty and a pleasure to drink after an oxidized bottle of Meursault... pear, apple, lemon, hazelnut, white floral notes. Palate has lovely energy and depth and overall has very good balance and finish for the level. A very solid value white Burgundy.

The nose here is initially reserved, but with time opens to reveal crisp apple, hazelnut, and lemon curd. The palate is fresh, crisp, has delicious minerality, and is overall just quite pleasurable. An excellent intro to white Burgundy and a very good value.

Bourgogne blanc at its best. Fresh with the superb complexity and balance of the vintage. Good body and fragrance with immediacy out of the bottle, but only improves with air. Hard to resist, but at the price there's no reason not to indulge! Should be excellent over the next 1-3+ years. See it...buy it.

...agree with Gargantua. Beautiful, light-footed Meursault. Nice lemony acidity washes down medium-bodied and slightly creamy midpalate which makes for a very balanced finish.

This wine has developed beautifully. Still a nice clean wine with a good spine, but has rounded out and become more generous. Well above class.

Ravishing bottle of declassified Meursault. Does its dance with poise, lean bright form, and proper 2014 acidity. You can't have enough of this.

Nice, straightforward bourgogne blanc. A bit fat. Poured by the glass at a bar.
