Nose is buttery and rich with stunning clarity. Lime zest, minerals and some dried soil tones as well. Palate is nervy and tense with tons of saline and green apple. Very juicy and delineated. Really precise stuff. Terrific acids and lovely mineral wash on the finish. Great wine. — 13 days ago

too young. A bit lean but soft and lovely. First time w this producer. Teo hours later it’s picked up weight and spice, good depth. — 3 months ago

Luscious. I smell a dusty earthy cherry, maybe even cocoa. It’s crisp but supple with very, very fine integrated tannins and a nice brightness. Really long too. (An hour later and now I am getting more raspberry than cherry.) — 5 months ago

Drinking so well now. Nose is mid season cherry and ripe. Some lovely earthy notes and cola notes. Spice and underbrush as well. Palate is concentrated, juicy and teeming with energy but also has great opulence and finishes super mineral. Engaging wine and superb stony finish. — a month ago

Nice but not overly remarkable. Don’t have a ton of experience with Pommard. This is quite fleshy and even slightly rustic perhaps. The tannins are certainly quite present. Not giving as much aromatically as one might hope. Still very well balanced and a nice finish. — 3 months ago

Nose: green apple skin and seashells.

Palate: lovely elegant green apples. Minerals.

Straightforward and so good. What you want in a Bourgogne blanc.

Ridiculous nose. Unreal clarity of dark cherry fruit and crazy cherry skins. Insane depth and top notch aromatic purity. Insane florals and spice. Nose is a 9.6 on the PNP. Some earthy funk as well and just a shockingly great nose. Palate is ripe, energetic and rich with insane sap and purity and awesome balance. Just a breathtaking wine that floats on the palate and has that extra special Burgundy thing that we all chase after. Insanely great. As this airs the class, finesse and refinement start to show and the fine powdery tannins. — 6 months ago

Nose: freshly cut flowers. Cherry flowers. Violets. Hand crushed early midseason cherries. Magnificent. As this opens some swirling spice. Terrific amplitude.

Palate: man. What amazingly fresh cherry juice. Utterly delicious. Some spice. So fresh.

Wow. This tastes just like … a Bourgogne rouge made by William whitehead. What a coincidence.

You get that succulent sexy fruit without as much of the complexity of the better terroir. Which is what you want some nights.

Nose: earth sexy cherries. Hints of cherry liquor.

Palate: full on mid to late season cherry. Cherry liquor. Hints of cherry licorice.
