Joy's 43rd (Our house): Magnum. This was a lovely wine, and its mature ripe fruit was extremely comforting, but it lacked the enthralling mineral spine of the 2015 we'd enjoyed earlier that evening. Not sure whether it was slightly past its best.

As I commented last year, this is a very nice aged white burgundy. The nose has some peach and pear aromas that are very enticing. The palate is expansive with lots of citrus and pear fruit. It has a slight butterscotch finish with lots of minerality. However, I do think the fruit has faded slightly from last year and I would recommend consuming this vintage sooner rather than later.

Very impressive. Lots of round big fruit in a tight glove. Length and power in this wine. The forward fruit of the vintage is restrained here, with structure and length more on display. Much in reserve yet.

Same notes as my last bottle a few months ago and it was my last one. Very good, but it probably should be consumed soon if you have any bottles.
