We drank the 1993 (the year we were married) for Valentine’s Day. it was amazing. The fruit and acidity were still there but surrounded by the earthiness you only get with a burgundy. This was my last and I am sad because it still has years to go — 3 months ago
I love 21 N Rhone. 12% alcohol here. Olives, game, smoke and flowers on the nose. Juicy, elegant palate with terrific length, purity and all red fruited and mixed with minerals and herbs. So fresh and energetic. Awesome. After around 20 hours this is crazy good. More depth and concentration. Awesome fruit. 9.3 to 9.4. — 2 months ago
Brooke really liked at DiDi’s. Nice balance of fruit and minerals — 2 months ago
The 2022 Chablis Village has a taut, focused, mineral-driven bouquet that opens nicely in the glass. The palate is well-balanced with a fine bead of acidity, quite waxy in texture with a pithy, peppery lingering finish. Enjoy over the next 4-6 years. (Neal Martin, Vinous, September 2023)

Best, most accessible young version of this. Glorious aromas of game, wild olives, pungent violets and stunning blankberry fruit and flower. The nose is out of this world. 9.7 nose. Smells like Cornas via Chambolle. Wow. Palate is so juicy, nimble and elegant with excellent red fruited goodness. Wow the freshness and acidity are so present. Grainy but well formulated tannins. So linear. Finishes very mineral. So classic. The tannins are so elegant and rest on on one’s lower cheeks/jaw. Blown away. So supple yet so classic. — 2 months ago
From the newly found leftover stash, still very nice, yeasty and balanced but showing hints of decline and lots of bubbly vitality. Will drink up. — 5 months ago

Muscadet of the Alps! Nose is wet hay, wild flowers, minerals, some underarm and more. So complex and expressive. Palate is super juicy and has huge acid and energy but also a pillowy texture and terrific fruit intensity. Long and so pretty. Let’s see what air does. This has gained lovely richness with air. Still a 9.3 but love that contrast with the acids. Also killer finesse. Close to a 9.4. — a month ago
