-  * **Chassagne–Montrachet "​Blanchot Dessus"​** (Nov. 2017 – ): btls not oxidized. Delicate perfume of white flowers. Leaner & less developed on the palate than the Les Vergers. No rush to drink.

-  * **Puligny–Montrachet "La Truffière"​** (Apr. 2018 – ): btls not oxidized. Orange flower & a touch of flint in the nose.

 +  * **Chassagne–Montrachet “Les Vergers”** (Jul. 2020 –  Oct. 2021): 5 btls not oxidized + 1 advanced. The good btls have a youthful color of pale gold. A contest between exotic, ripe orchard fruits, citrus blossom, & mineralité in the nose & on the palate. Richly textured & delicious. Decanting recommended. The advanced btl (Apr. 2021) was a first for us from this domaine. From a half case purchased in 2012 from the domaine'​s West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. [Rayner Cheung]

-=====   ​=====+  ​* **Puligny–Montrachet "La Truffière"​** (Oct. 2020 – Mar. 2022): 6 btls not oxidized. Youthful color of pale yellow. Earlier btls needed decanting. Notes of citrus blossom & citrus peel emerge after some coaxing. Youthful flavors of green fruits laced with mineralité as the wine opens up in the glass.

 +  * **Chassagne–Montrachet "Les Vergers"​** (Apr. 2021 – ): 6 btls not oxidized. The first btl appeared to be somewhat darker in color than the other 5, but was perfectly fine & served decanted. Classic Bruno style of Les Vergers, very mineral & taut, with just a little muskiness in the nose. Decanting definitely helps. From a half case purchased in 2013 from the domaine'​s West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. [Rayner Cheung]
 +  * **Puligny–Montrachet "La Truffière"​** (Jun. 2022 – ): 6 btls not oxidized. Very refined nose of orange blossom & white flowers. Muskiness quite pronounced in some btls. Citrus & a hint of orchard fruits on the palate. Exceptionally well–balanced & delicious. From 7 btls purchased in 2013 from the domaine'​s West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant.
