This last bottle was another very good one. Mineral, yellow fruits, a kiss of citrus, something floral emerging towards the end. Enough acidity. Excellent with sautéed salmon and quinoa "risotto"

Flint and gunpowder. Lots of minerality. Viscous mouthfeel. Reminiscent of a Chardonnay. A cross between Chablis and almost California chard. Suckling overrates at 96 but I get the excitement.

Coravin glass at restaurant. Light golden yellow, nice balance of freshness and a fine texture, not oily, seems more mature and settled than one would expect from a 2013 vintage. White fruit, fine toast, medium length. Our friend JS rated this at 96 points. I can see where he draws certain parallels to a Burgundy white when it comes to profile and structure of the wine but when it comes to complexity and aromatics this is light years away from the mentioned top Grand Cru, instead it's somewhere between a very good village and average 1er. Perhaps it can develop a bit further but don't expect quantum leaps. Nevertheless a nice wine. 89+

Not as well liked as a bottle a year ago. More sharp than full-bodied. Interesting mineral flavors but somehow not enough of a frame to hang them them on. Hopefully just an off bottle.

Flinty, earthy, but still fresh. Citrus. Grapefruit. Smooth. Delicious.
