| Community Tasting Notes (average 92.6 pts. and median of 92 pts. in 10 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by Bill Johnson on 11/22/2022 & rated 93 points: A beautiful chard from France. Slightly grassy with pear on nose. Not overly Oaked with a little tartness and minerality on the finish. Easy to drink. (762 views) | | | Tasted by WineKnut on 9/18/2022 & rated 92 points: Pale straw and no gas. 5
Nose of pineapple, jasmine, saline, wet stone, grapefruit pith, and just a touch of cut grass. 13
Palate is quite rich up front with green apple, medium mouthfeel and honey. Lightens as it glides over mid palate becoming brighter developing into lemon, minerality and then as the acid fades the soft melon and floral qualities play peekaboo around the fading citrus. 16
Great complexity and in a good place. Loved it. 8 (778 views) | | | Tasted by CubFan4Life on 3/27/2022 & rated 94 points: Continues to be the best Chardonnay I’ve ever had. Which I could afford a case but will settle for 1-2 bottles a year. (1188 views) | | | Tasted by casaallora on 3/5/2022 & rated 92 points: Beautiful aroma of honeysuckle & honeydew melon. Nice soft yellow color w/very nice, refined legs. Fruit forward with flavors of Meyer lemon & mildly tart melon. Very pleasant finish. Appetizer: Brie & Pear Entree; Swordfish in white wine & butter sauce w/sauteed vegetables. A very nice match to both courses. (1056 views) | | | Tasted by Pinot Peter on 10/2/2021: Slight acetone nose, excellent acidity and citrus flavour notes, good length. A easy drinking and refreshing wine. Great competition for the more pricey Cote de Or whites . (1539 views) | | | Tasted by Whitman on 8/19/2021 & rated 92 points: A nice nose with white flowers and nectarines. Quite powerfull but clean palate ending in a very satisfying citrus finish. It is very good in its own right, but given the price it's a wine Im going to buy every year. (1254 views) | | | Tasted by vinkjeften2 on 8/21/2020 & rated 92 points: Very nice balance between fruit and oak with an exceptional and pleasing acidity often lacking in these wines. Will become a wine I will buy regularly. (2062 views) |

2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy 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
