1997 vintage. Decanted and tasted immediately, after 30 mins and after 2 hours. Threw a little sed but not much. Cinnamon, straw, rhubarb and strawberry on the nose. Light-medium body. Good focus and concentration throughout the tasting gauntlet; finishing with a couplet of dust and earth. Not improving but likely to hold the line for an additional 3-4 years. Love isn't always on time. No. No. No. 10.22.23. — a month ago

Served blind. We were close on the year. Guessed the appellation. Terrific. — 4 months ago

A brooding, intense nose. Dark red fruit, a bit of oak, intense violets and earthy fruit. Tight and masculine next to the Mugnier, but lovely stuff. — 4 years ago

This could still use a bit more time in the cellar — a month ago

A unicorn wine. This is a completely different expression of Chardonnay compared to the Grand Cru Beaune Whites preceding this. This had some similarities to Chablis. Minerally with a honeyed finish. Should be better in 5 years. I was thrilled to be able to taste this wine. — 2 months ago

Liger Belair Dinner 2nd flight in Mag. This is a wine that is not imported to the US as the quantity is so minuscule. Lots of black cherry, raspberry with good structure & purity of fruit. My favorite of the group. — 5 years ago

Deep fruit but light edges. Pretty lifted strawberry notes on the de Vogue gnarly bed of intense dark fruit. Dynamic and pretty. Cherry notes. — 2 months ago

Liger Belair dinner. 1st flight was a trio of his white 2012-2014 vintages. They all had ripe stone, citrus, tropical fruits, white flower, honey & creamy texture. I preferred the 2012. — 5 years ago
