A couple of Carillons tonight. Very Carillon… which sadly means disappointing to me - at least from François.
14 Chevy - Lots of oak. Very rich, round and large scaled wine. Unexpected for 14 which one would expect chiseled and crystalline texture and zippy acidity. Never came around with air. A big miss in my book.
14 Referts - Good and significantly better than the Chevy on first pour. More 14-like but still missing the zip. Lost steam with air and became a watered down version of the Chevy.
Too bad…2011 is an absolute stud! Would have guessed a 14 would be as well?
Magnificent Corton-Vergennes blanc- very stony and steely wine. I have not had the others in the range, but based on the Corton-Vergennes I would give just about anything they make a try.
US distribution is limited- always has been for whatever reason. I think lack of familiarity is a more likely reason for the pricing than quality.
I never had a disappointing Jacques Carillon however! I do think Jacques is one of the most consistent winemakers in white Burgundy but maybe a bit under the radar as they don’t join events like la Paulée.
Jacques Carillon fan as well. Consistently feel others are a level or two below. Admittedly less GC labels/vineyards so there is that.
2022 Dom. de Montille St. Aubin En Remilly 1er Cru
Popped and poured over 3h - a bit restrained at the start but very pleasant overall. Intense nose of ripe yellow apple, a touch floral (Chenin-like chamomile/ lanolin), ripe lemon, very light oak spice and almonds. Not too creamy/ buttery; Puligny comes first to mind as a comparison vs. Chassagne. Similar taste profile on the palate with a pleasant minerality to it. Acidity is high but still balanced. Medium to medium-light body and relatively low ABV (12.5%). Already very good - paired very well both with white fish and creamy sauce and cold cuts/ charcuterie - has potentially to improve in the next 2-5 years. 92+
2020 Hubert Lamy, Saint-Aubin 1er cru Derriere Chez Edouard - from Mag
PnP
Salted lemon, lemon confit, ripe pear, nutmeg and sea breeze on the nose. The palate was very concentrated but surprisingly open for business. Shrill acidity, citrus fruit and pear and the forefront coupled with a great mineral drive. Restrained oak which is already well integrated. Magnums are just better and 2020 in the hands of Lamy will be ridiculously good with age! This should Obviously was quite primary but it expressed a lot of character!
to chime in - had a premox’ed Saint-Aubin 1er Les Murgers des Dents de Chien from Ramonet.. a 21! 
Still not using DIAM corks?
This thread is probably even more useful than the Red Burg one. Some recent datapoints:
17 J-M Pillot Chassagne Vergers ‘Clos St Marc’ - One of my fave wines in Burgundy and this is drinking sensationally. Grand Cru quality, easily.
17 Coche Rougeots - Breathtaking and monumental. Dense and intense yet lifted and so balanced.
18 H. Germain Meursault Charmes - I continue to think that 18 whites exceed their reputation. This is proper and balanced, if just a tad dilute. Not as good as 17 or 20 for sure, but plenty tasty.
19 Lumpp Crausot Blanc - Disjointed and volatile. I think early premox, similar to 19 Dauvissat Forest.
19 Dauvissat Forest - Second one of these that was early premox. Why can’t they use Diam?!
19 Lamy St Aubin 1er Clos de la Chateniere - Still young, reductive, and hyper-bright. Needs time. Good but will never be great.
22 Coche Meursault - Fabulous but so tightly coiled and young. Needs at least a few years and won’t peak for many years.
Thanks for the notes Ryan. You are drinking very well. JM Pillot churning out some fabulous wines.
Erratic usage of DIAM. We had a Magnum of 2020 Jean-Claude Ramonet Bourgogne Blanc Les Durots on the weekend sealed under DIAM. Splendid drinking!
great to hear 
also have a mag of this mini Meursault in the cellar
Where would you place the ideal drinking window for Coche Meursault? I’ve only had Coche very young, and well aged (under 5 years or 20+ years) but curious when the fireworks really start. An 05 Coche Rougeots from last July was one of the more impressive White Burgs I’ve ever had.
Oh man. I’ve had enough Coche to appreciate the extreme quality but not nearly enough to answer a question like that with any credibility. (Goals …). I do think they take a fair bit of time to reach their apex. Where is the William Kelley bat signal?
I will say that, like you, an 05 Coche was one of my real epiphany Burgs. An 05 Puligny Ensegnieres, from a couple years ago, remains one of the most memorable white burgs I’ve ever had the privilege to consume.
11-14 have been drinking well atm. For cc, I have liked the 08, 10, 11, 13 and 14.
That seems about right. How did the 14 CC show? I’m generally staying away from 14 whites unless they are opened by a generous friend. They are amazing, but still so so young and I don’t own enough.
Young but great; I like white burg young in general though.
Not on that one at least. I am not buying White Ramonet as the last 3/4 have been premoxed for me… Il gladly drink it, just not going to spend my own money
Red on the other hand 
I like them when they get at least 6-8 years, vintage dependent of course, and keep going for at least 20 years for me. Recent few months have borne this out:
2017 Coche Meursault (4 bottles different sources) have been expressive and excellent. 2014 even better, a touch more energetic and complex. I’d love to see how these all age but no shame drinking now too.
2 bt 2006 Perrieres from perfect provenance recently were incredible, showing the benefit of time while retaining excellent energy.
2015 CC a couple months was a bit discreet though.
