Jun 13th, 2018Citrus rind, brisk minerality, chalkiness at first. Peach fuzz appears as it opens. More depth in the wine had I given it a chance to open further!

May 28th, 2020Beautiful and ripe with classic Meursault volume and tension. Could use a handful more years, but drinking beautifully today with some air. Enjoy for easily 20 years
