This was really very good. Minerality, nice acidity, longeur, complexity. Unlike other bottles this one showed normal evolution. I sincerely hope Thomas Morey will ascertain stabilty in his wines. But a gifted producer as he is, will find the solution.

Pale yellow color, intense stony nose, elegant citrus peel, marble, on the palate liquid stone leading into a marble-edged genteel and persistent citrus fruit with hints of melon, a subtle finish of superb length, with time it becomes quite intense on the palate with a forceful stone quality, after an hour- electric, gravelly, stony, a mid-weight with a good balance to it despite the intensity of its presentation, a most singular wine from a most singular site, I am hard pressed to imagine just how it will be in time- but I look very much forward to finding out. Most impressive. (****), 2020-2030+

Super oaky, with lots of vanilla. It's that high-quality fancy light-toast french oak, so I don't mind the oak. But there's really not much else to the wine. There's a distinct lack of extract or power or minerality. It's just oaky and tart, and pretty boring. Very disappointing considering the vineyard and vintage.

Layered in an almost Montrachet kind of way. Creamy fruits, mineral reduction, spearmint and aniseed as well. Dense with so much presence in the mouth. Length is superb.
