Nose has crushed flint, sliced lemon, mild oak notes, ripe white peach and toasted Italian bread.

Palate has creamy (ripe) tropical fruits, medium oak, dried lemon with medium acidity.

Declassified Meursault? In a nice spot, but probably suggest drinking the 14's on this bottle in the next few years 2023-25.

Really oystery, light gold, minerally, not much fruit super clean balanced acid that works and disappears

Forty-five minutes in and I'm still trying to keep up with this ever changing village white. Currently? Butterscotch with Yellow Mustard seeds. If a tad more weight reveals itself I get to an easy 9. (A few more years in bottle to really show itself...🤔)

It's the little wines from the good vintages that hit so much above their designation - really good!

2014 - hitting well above its level - serious bang for the buck - especially for this vintage

This beats most producer's Meursault village, and many 1ers. Taught, electric, citrusy precision.

Very nice Bourgogne. Lemon, wet stones, jasmine. Bright, but balanced. Enough going on that it's interesting, although not complex. Great with my hair cuisine Jerk Chicken, courtesy of Freshly.

This is a tasty Chardonnay with excellent acidity and length. Bourgogne AOC that rivals Village and 1er. Very compelling.
