2021 vintage. Opened and tasted twice within an hour in the 55-62 degree range. Medium-heavy body. Initial blast of gratuitous, obvious oak that (fairly) quickly subsided and refocused with mineral visitation, acidity and salinity completely shutting the door behind. In a bit of transition now but still delicious. Excellent concentration throughout. 8.14.26.

Dinner in Changy FR. I thought this would be incredible, but it is only good, not great (as I had hoped). Flinty, mineral notes as expected, medium body, longer finish but thinner than I expected. Not bad by any means, but at $76 from a wine shop (not a restaurant) I expected more body and a longer finish.

Very good wine, crisp and with some depth, fresh and elegant, nicely done. 90-91
Beau vin, vif, frais et élégant avec de la profondeur, sans être le plus complexe, bien fait. 90-91
