 Tasted by dvansteenderen on 3/11/2019 & rated 90 points: @ VINEUM. Consistent with previous note. (690 views)
 Tasted by dvansteenderen on 3/5/2019 & rated 90 points: Small tasting glass @ VINEUM during service, so a brief note. Still fond of this wine, at peak at the moment and no signs of premox yet! (667 views)
 Tasted by Xavier Auerbach on 2/26/2018 & rated 92 points: A private tasting (Restaurant De Ertepeller, Papendrecht. NL): Tasted blind. Intense but elegant, fresh and floral style, supple, ripe fruit, has power and concentration but does not really show itself yet, has finesse and precision, salty finish, very good length. (1480 views)
 Tasted by dvansteenderen on 2/26/2018 & rated 90 points: Tasted blind. Not the biggest wine this afternoon, but very good for a village. 2010 vintage shines trough! (667 views)
 Tasted by SimonG on 8/19/2015 & rated 89 points: Pale. Fresh and clean on the nose, relatively neutral with just a hint of white fruit and wet stone. Nicely focused with a good line. Again, quite clean, starting on the lean side and gaining a little weight and complexity as it warms and opens. *** (1943 views)
 Tasted by galenico on 11/11/2014 & rated 89 points: VIAGGIO BORGOGNA NOVEMBRE 2014; 9/12/2014-12/15/2014: Tequila sale, limone e salvia! Naso verticale e ficcante.
La bocca è molto più dosata dall' equilibrio tra legno, marzapane e fiori bianchi.
Tanto sale amplifica la persistenza e la salivazione ha una texture gessosa e rinfrescante.
Buono ed elegante (2268 views)
 Tasted by Xavier Auerbach on 1/22/2014 & rated 88 points: A little bit of everything, subtle oak, fresh, cleverly put together. Not unattractive but slightly boring. (2077 views)
 Tasted by kostaslonis on 10/6/2013 & rated 90 points: Cellier Wine Fair (Intercontinental Hotel): Medium intensity, subtle oaky with butter, walnut, mild yeast character, youthful.
Medium+ to full body, dry with medium+ to high acidity, medium alcohol, medium+ intensity, high lemon and citrus notes, balance towards acidity indicating its youth, pineapple and lime juice with ripe apricot in the back, ends with medium+ finish.
Outstanding quality, premium price, drinking now with food but can hold. (2536 views)
 Tasted by Stefanos T. on 5/19/2013 & rated 88 points: Medium lemony color.
Nose with remarkable purity of fruit - mostly citric but some floral notes are also present.
Fresh wine with high but not aggressive acidity but slightly unripe. (2097 views)
 Tasted by sgwolff on 1/22/2013 & rated 80 points: This chardonnay is pretty tame with subtle oak...it's nice but not much "wow" (1516 views)
 Tasted by KVM on 5/28/2012 & rated 83 points: So2. Struggling to find anything with character. Good but generic. 2.4 (1230 views)

Burgundy

Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)

Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson

# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates

# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson

# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson

# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
