Tasted blind. Medium gold color. Matchstick nose. Notes of apricot, citrus, white stone/limestone, petrol, tan spice. Massive acidity in the mouth, matched by a ton of fruit and structure. This evolved all night, getting better and better. Guessed 99 Leflaive Batard. 96+

Some oxidation, acid cuts but I feel this is not all this wine has to offer. It is still very enjoyable

Tasted blind. Medium gold. In the nose you get a feel for the power of the fruit and acidity in this wine, but alas it’s corked. The flaw blew off later in the day to reveal lemon and wood, some sulfur and some stones. But soon after the taint was back in force. Too bad.

Amazingly alive & vibrant. Not a hint of ox. Concentrated, brilliant & on point.

Disjointed at first but opened up beautifully after several hours.
