This bottle brought me tremendous joy. My last bottle a few months back was over the hill and it really bothered me because I felt this could easily go 10+ years when I tasted it on release. This is a perfect example of there are no great wines just great bottles. Lovely scents of apple, lime and vanilla. A wonderfully integrated palate with a finish that makes you think premier cru.

Preferred the 15 with its tropical fruit to this 14 which was very reduced and ‘lanolin’. Still a lovely wine but I just had the 15 so this stands a bit behind even though I like the 14 overall vintage better. Pm me for some @ $43 ea

Laser focused is an overused identifier but this wine is laser focused AF. Clean fresh flowers, lychee, wet gravel. Love it.

Enjoyed very much on release. I thought it was the equal of Roulot BB. Like @Doug Powers, I enjoy aging wines. As long as one is not disappointed when the experiment fails it can be a very enjoyable. exercise. Unfortunately, chalk this up as a loss., Maderized . One more bottle left🤞, maybe I will get lucky.

Holy smokes. Probably the best 14' Bourgogne Blanc I've had. Blinded - we guessed a 1er cru Chablis.
