Note: I use the suggested scale, so 85 is a very good wine.
I was guided by the admonition ":If yo get 'em drink 'em." For whatever reasons, this bottle was noticeably better than the bottle I had last month. Much smoother, much more "Beaune-like." Much better balance of acid and fruit. I have one more. I am curious.

Nothing lasts forever, not even a solid white Burgundy. Clearly past its prime, but by no means "over the hill." There was a little funk upon opening, buy that disappeared. My TN is similar to 2014. Tart. not very round.

Nez frais framboise et petites baies rouges; bouche aux tanins asséchés, mais avec longueur et vivacité encore présentés ds un 2e temps; à trop attendu en cave, sur le déclin.

I am with the previous tasters. Nice bottle, a little citrusy and tart, but not a lot. Occasionally, some richness peeks out, but not strongly. Contrary tp M.Batard's note of 3/31/2012, I would not recommend with anything too spicy -- seemed to kill the wine -- at least for me.
