Tasted a lot of 2023 burgundies last weekend. Thought I’d try a white with some age.
With aging white burgundy, sometimes it gives you a touch of v/a. This is on nose but not the palate. Believe it is v/a but there is some confusion with the scent of mushrooms. Thought it might be some burgundy cellar funk. But yes, some detectable v/a. Yet, it’s not entirely offensive.
The palate show excellent viscosity. It’s full & round. Golden-green apples, creamy lemons, some lime zest, both stone fruits, not so sweet pineapple syrup & kiwi notes, warm caramel, Brach’s butterscotch candy, gentle but thick honey, their is some unfortunate, faint wet cardboard that comes once it opens up, mushrooms, saline-sea foam, excellent, white spice, oyster fossils, touch of flintiness-gun powder, smooth chalky powder, wet limestone marl, some herbal notes, yellow lilies, white Spring florals set in greens, pleasant, round acidity with perfect balance, mid toned/structured, nicely knitted, elegant, rich finish that lasts 90 seconds and lands on spice, chalk and volcanic minerals on the long set.
Unfortunate about the minimal cardboard. I’d add a point, maybe two w/o it.

2022 vintage. Most excellent lunchtime visit from the esteemed @Pinotman /// Andreas . A fave C-M plot. Premmie Cru (always nice) effort. We traced this wine through the various temps. Generous, yet balanced acidity coupled with fruit in the early, chilly going. Light-medium/medium body. Back-end oak influence that was complimentary during the visit. Never got flabby…even when it warmed up to 60+ degrees. Classically structured with phenomenal tension. No rush to crush yet drinking so well so early. Decisions…decisions. Enjoy as you will under your preferred palate/aging guidelines. There is no wrong answer here. 11 bottles left and I only can wish of having another case at my disposal. Picked up a case of this, Les Vergers and Les Caillerets after only sampling Les Vergers (9.4) from the 2022 vintage. May have lucked out on that flyer. 3.4.26. — 18 days ago

Fantastic and so worth the price! Every aspect of it was just a great white wine. — 4 months ago
Fantastic bottle of Macon. Mineral as all can be with real density, sap, weight and precision. Compelling. Nose is meyer lemon and so saline. Palate has uncanny finesse. Outrageous fruit and concentration. So dense and fine. Terrific on day 2. Rounded, but still has that piercing minerality and density. Long, tangy finish and the nose has a honeyed quality along wirh an intense mineral/floral thing. — 6 days ago
What can I say great juice / and such an unexpected gift from Scott over lunch (he is special the best som i ever met). If you happen to be in San Diego stop by at Mister A’s it’s a classy place / bring a jacket wear a nice shirt. Spectacular views. I expect the rating to go up with time: — 15 days ago

2022 vintage. Medium-medium heavy body. Slightly less acidity than the same vintage Chenevottes and Verges Prem Cru offerings and an unctuous hint/suggestion or two. Big and varied citrus oils, ginger, pear, rain day gravel. A tad waxy as it warms up. Some oak but it never dominates...only gently elevates. Yet another 2022 vintage winner from Marc Morey. 3.9.26. — 13 days ago
