White wine of the day for me, this was the most complete and resolved of them all. The question we all discussed was whether it was better because it had a couple years more age than the others, or whether it was the previous winemaker's style. Whatever the case may be, this was an epic wine at the level of the finest Montrachet, sharing that staggering "meal in a bottle" quality that one gets from the finest DRC and Lafon Montrachet vintages.
As stunning as this was, I'm not entirely certain I'd keep these in the cellar for the long haul; this seemed to be in a perfect spot and maybe oxidation becomes a risk in a few years?

Great dense texture and acidity. My palate was a little off and I tasted a little bruised apple character so I never connected with this bottle that I brought, but others at the table thought that this was great.

This was the 3rd time I’ve had this wine over the years, and it’s never shown well, coming from 3 different sources…this was my bottle. Very muted and closed, we gave it air but it never came around and someone suggested it might be oxidized. i didn’t pick up sherried notes but there were hints of something tropical if you looked hard enough. Odd

just outstanding. Intense, pure and mineral as I remembered but with additional depth and complexity. 96/97
minimal notes in my phone
