Wonderful Chardonnay from one of my favorite new world producers. This is premier cru level Chardonnay. Excellent fruit character ripe apple and pear. A touch of oak brings vanilla and butterscotch notes with a hint of clove on the palate. 93 points.

Screw cap, no cork but no worries. This is excellent chardonnay that allows one to enjoy the purity of fruit and terroir. Light gold color, citrusy initially then a fairly broad palate feel with mineralogy and acidity. Hints of butterscotch but nothing like an overlooked West Coast American chardonnay. Good length and finish. This drinks somewhat like a premier cru Puligny Montrachet at less than half the cost.

A rare note on a wine not from my cellar. My friend served this and it was outstanding, akin to a premier cru White Burgundy. Intense fruit/earth/mineral flavors. Worth seeking out.

Beautiful bouquet with a light dose of good oak, a bit restrained on the nose, but there are some white and yellow fruits. Same on the palate, minerals, good citrus, full bodied and tasty and an enormous length.
