  Heater week; 3/8/2024-3/17/2024 (Chicago, IL): PYCM before it became all reductive. A little muted on the nose, but the balance of the thick and dense house style with Chevalier really does the trick here. Incredible complexity and minerality, proper chardonnay breadth on the palate, and in a perfect place right now. Still showing a bit of freshness from the fruit, this really have everything on display right now.

  This was not as accessible as the last bottle and was jokingly referred to as a "barrel sample" by the tasting group. Concentrated and linear citrus and minerals. No discernible oak. This is very close to reaching the aniseed phase of aromatics, but not quite there. Needs at least 4 years to expand.

  Served next to Bouchard's 2008 Chevy and overtime the difference in class (ie PYCM's superiority) really showed through.

  Took an hour to open up. Serious concentration with electric power and tons of mineral, matchstick and citrus accents intertwined with ripe orchard fruit. Very good but not as lights out as a bottle from a year ago.

  It feels quite young but it is so intense with its clear deep fruit and many impressions including mineral and citrus notes. Just magnificent with an impeccable balance.
