A puzzle. On opening there was a blast of yeasty oatmeal and an intense palate impression even if bit raw. Later though it retreated and became simple and lemony. After a couple more hours it began to blossom some and a bit of the original character emerged. Presumably it will sort itself out in a few years.

Drank well, loads of telltale mint, minerals, and lemon, though also notes of honeycomb, which had a couple of us wondering about the pace of evolution. I still found it delicious, but not as youthful as a 14 BBM from last year, nor the 04 Coche MP that was drunk next to the Batard

Burgundy Bachelor Party: Yum yum yum, delicious but young. Great minerality, lovely texture. If you can keep hands off this should be a knockout in time.

Grand Cru White Burgundy Fest: A bit developed, but this had very good acid as one would expect from the vintage. This bottle didn't quite wow.
