Needs air but so elegant and gorgeous. Pretty. Roses, mid season. cherry, mineral and very open palate that is fleshing out minute by minute. Gorgeous, elegant tannins and very pure. Let’s see what air does. Such a wispy wine. — 7 days ago
Super nose of high toned floras after some funk blew off. Crunchy red and black cherries and so much aroma. Also some kind of elite dog chow thing going on. Love this. Palate is so juicy and deep and really starting to shed that aggressive 18 tannin. Gorgeous sweet fruit and finesse. Wonderful and so authentic. After almost 24 hours the fruit has gotten so so devastatingly gorgeous and precise. Leaves such an impression. 9.4 now. From 9.3. — 10 days ago
Terrific nose with some framing oak that will blow off with air. Deep cherry, some dark red cherry, mineral, earth, spice and some florals. Huge palate impact with gorgeous fruit. Unreal fruit and buffered by very good acidity and a fine, slippery texture. Just terrific fruit clarity and precision with lovely spice that echoes on the finish. Some mint and menthol coming in on the nose but this needs more air. Will be back. Really wonderful finesse here as well. As this airs the fruit gets silkier and sweeter. 23 more and more reminding me of 19 once it gets proper aeration. — 3 days ago
Big, brambly nose with lots of red cherries, mid season sour cherries, earth and mineral. Really clean and evocative. Palate is juicy and so precise. Very clean and a lovely mineral/fruit wash on the finish. Great depth, freshness and terrific concentration. Not elegant but this wine never is. It has such impact for little $$. Nice, ripe tannins and serious structure. This is always best at 5 years old. — 3 days ago
Absolutely killer out of the bottle. On the 23 now and this is in the perfect spot. So opulent yet chiseled and such precision. It’s silly how beyond Bourgogne Blanc this is. Nose almost like Chablis. Unreal purity and balance. Chewy, dense and concentrated but a lemon drop quality and unreal structure. This has a decade left in the tank. What a finish. The minerality abounds. — 8 days ago
The 23 is upon us! Gorgeous aromas of dark cherry and bright cherry fruit and smells plush. Huge undercurrent of gorgeous limestone minerality. Really focused nose. The clarity and precision keep getting better every vintage. Some cranberry bog as well. Palate is so juicy and had an insane mouthful of fruit with such cut. Really textured and densely fruited and many black/red and sour cherries and had a plumpness. Not 15 plumpness without framing, not 18 plumpness surrounded by tannins but. unique 23 plumpness that echoes with unreal lipstick like fruit intensity that has lasting power on the palate. The fruit saturation on this is next level and my god this is hedonistic but in the best way possible because Pierre is a genius. The length is just staggering and the way it keeps pumping the fruit and the high quality but manageable tannins make this just so brilliant to drink. Unless this closes it will drink terrifically early and last 10-12 years. As it airs it is gaining so much energy and precision and the tannins and fruit get so much sweeter. — 16 days ago

In an amazing place. Nose has some reduction which will blow off but man o man that palate. The acid is just so intense and layered, juicy and explosive fruit like you cannot believe. Just cracking! So tasty. It’s got an urgency on the palate that makes this so special. Sappy for days and unreal velvety and mineral drenched tannins. My goodness this is brilliant. Nose has some smoke and leather as well. Unreal freshness. I mean the freshness is like young dry Riesling. Genius stuff and in the window. Let’s see what air does. — 6 hours ago
