   * **Meursault** (November 2014): Smelled oxidative in character but not oxidized. Fresh nutty notes off the top. Past its prime. (Jackson R)   * **Meursault** (November 2014): Smelled oxidative in character but not oxidized. Fresh nutty notes off the top. Past its prime. (Jackson R)
   * **Montrachet** (November 2015): Drunk at a restaurant in Alsace legendary for its wine list. Impeccable storage. Dead and gone, totally sherried. Waitress commented when I sent the bottle back that all 2005 Lafon was like this, though other years were much better.

   * **Meursault–Perrières** (May 2016, May 2019, Nov. 2019): ​ 3 btls not oxidized. On both occasions, the nose was reluctant & the flavors were reserved. Tightly packed with extract, this wine would benefit from decanting and/or service in a glass with a wide bowl. The btl in 2019 was better on day 2. From a lot of 3 purchased at retail in Hong Kong in Mar. 2015. [Rayner Cheung]   * **Meursault–Perrières** (May 2016, May 2019, Nov. 2019): ​ 3 btls not oxidized.
