A legacy CdP from the collection. Haven’t had in many years - with the age it’s certainly nice. Though, quite full bodied and somehow still somewhat austere, and with not enough acid to really keep it all refined. Nice enough with skirt steak on the grill. — 8 months ago

2016 vintage. Solid representation. No particular essence with greater distinctiveness than any other. Good balance and value. — 2 years ago

9.3

Unctuous red and black fruits, tea, cocoa, earth, strong but integrated tannins adding a solid structure and heft. Absolutely delicious. Needed a good two hours to get booming but super. — a month ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The BdB d’Aÿ GC pours a straw color with medium viscosity and a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is developing with ripe orchard fruits and autolytic notes: apple, peach, lemon curd, lightly toasted brioche, nuts and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with high acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long, creamy and toasty. Rich and decadent. Drink now. Disgorged March 2022. — a month ago

Big all-around smooth tannins, good balance, licorice, fennel (flavor), ripe plum, black fruit, dark chocolate. Powerful. Long finish. Really enjoyed much more second day and in 65-68 temp. — 6 months ago

Enjoyable. Kind of a cross between California and French Chardonnay. — 2 years ago
