First experience with this producer and it’s a good one. I figured a 1er Cru would be somewhat good and it was. Medium body with good structure. Not too lemony or acidic which I like. Well worth the $35 I paid. Great QPR. Will buy again for sure.👍

The wine is a light lemon color. These notes are taken after the wine has been decanted 60-90 minutes (1/2 bottle via Coravin) at 53F degrees. The nose has citrus, white flowers, a bit of melon, and a hint of orange. The palate has orange, cantaloup, a hint of honey (but without the sweetness). The wine has a medium body, balanced, but not prominent, acid, with a medium finish. Everything is nicely balanced. This pairs well with food--tonight I tasted it with cheese and country pork-pistachio pate, then with Moules à la Marinière. ABV 12.5%.

Popped and poured Luminous gold straw color; Lively acidity, luscious green apple fruit with a crisp mineral finish. This is a first rate effort with an excellent QPR.
