Showing some age, this exhibited the compelling depth and complexity of CH with amazing acidity and precision — 3 years ago
Mother Mary of God! It’s a stunning example of why I adore White Burgundy.
The nose reveals; Meyer lemon, Granny Smith apples, pineapple, lime zest, stone fruit, under ripe green melon, beeswax, honeysuckle, touch of caramel, fruit blossoms, river stones, cream for days, gentle white spice, powdery limestone & brilliant, soft gentle chalkiness, steely minerals, some flintiness with jasmine, mixed greens, yellow lilies and spring flowers.
The body is full, rich, lush and waxy. It’s simply stunning as it glides over the palate. It just doesn’t get much better in White Burgundy unless you spend seriously more money. Meyer lemon, Granny Smith apples, pineapple, lime zest, stone fruit, under ripe green melon, kiwi, bruised Bosc pear, beeswax, honeysuckle, vanillin notes, touch of caramel, fruit blossoms, river stones, cream for days, butter, gentle white spice with soft, warm heat, herbaceous, powdery limestone & brilliant, soft gentle chalkiness, steely minerals, some flintiness with jasmine, mixed greens, yellow lilies and spring flowers. The phat, round acidity is like a warm, gentle rain shower. The rich, lush, ripe, polished, well balanced finish is delicious and persists several minutes.

Good condition given the age, enough body weight. — 3 years ago
From the Encégnières Climat, on the border to Puligny and directly below Batard-Montrachet.
Taut, young & fresh despite the 6y. Opens with a bit of matchstick reduction and some bready-nutty notes, followed by ripe lemons. On the palate this shows great concentration with a core of spicy minerality and fresh, juicy acidity around which layers of ripe lemons are wound tightly. Ends with a note of lemon tart with salty caramel.
A grand wine with amazing purity and length. — 4 years ago
Excellent white Burgundy from Cote-D’Or France. Not bitter or too sweet. It’s a light perfect white wine. Robert Morris brought it for me from France. — 5 years ago

Had at a Musar tasting at Terroir with Marc Hochar. Nice cab / cinsault / Grenache blend. Relatively smooth tannins with some funk. — 7 years ago

Happy birthday to me! This premier cru demonstrates all of the subtleties and clarities that make great burgundy great. Smelling this wine was like being in a field of hay and strawberries on a crisp spring day; drinking it was like making slow, tender love to an electrical outlet. Stays in your nose’s mind and lingers on your palate far longer than you would expect a delicate ten year old white wine to do. Nothing overpowering whatsoever, everything perfectly harmonious.

Much more minerality than expected; fantastic balance I would have placed in a Meursault than Saint Aubin. — 6 years ago
