4/24/2024 - jnewman77 Likes this wine: NRThis was really good; lemon zest and mineral notes with underlying ripe apple and pear. Fresh, delicious, great depth for the price. Hands down one of the best values in Burgundy. Wish they were easier to find. |

4/6/2024 - AlphaMikeFoxtrot Likes this wine: 92 pointsFreesia, roasted corn, toasted coconut, smoke, fennel seed, anise, fresh rosemary, ripe golden apples and ripe pears on the nose. Medium intensity of aromas. The palate is a lot more intense, adding orange peel, butter, wet stone and finishing with brine. It keeps a lot of the anise from the nose too. Texturally rounded. I feel oak, malo and lees aging on this wine; but none of is too overbearing. Feels like even-handed winemaking. |

4/6/2024 - caesar77 Likes this wine: 92 pointsPnP. Straw w/ fallow straw-to-clear edge in color. Nose of subtle butterscotch, white peach, honeysuckle, honeydew melon and brioche. On the palate: honeydew melon, yellow delicious apple, butterscotch, tomato leaf & saline minerality. Crisp acid is nicely balanced with a linear progression across the palate. Medium weight with a creamy umami. Long finish of meyer lemon curd, yellow delicious apple & sea salt. |

4/5/2024 - JohnMcIlwain Likes this wine: NRTrying to will Spring into existence. (March not to mention April, and May are the cruelest months here in New England, after all.) I scored some favas at Eataly in Boston, so why not enjoy with some local chicken, baby carrots, and a (nearly) four-year-old Viré-Clessé? The 2020 Héretiers du Comte Lafon displays a pale lemon sherbert yellow robe. The nose is a bit circumspect upon opening—reduction and a bit of CO2 dominating the aromatic profile. With air, some Queen Anne Cherry, Meyer Lemon oil, wet stone, and quinine join the aromatic profile. Plenty of nerve and verve and surprising youth here. The palate is similarly tightly wound and backwards with a hour in the decanter necessary before the pure expressions of white and yellow stone fruit to emerge. But hoo boy, do they emerge. A virtual Carmen Miranda’s hat worth of salted fruits reveal themselves with air and the stony, sapid framework snaps into place to lend gravitas to the proceedings. Plenty of energy her expressed on the nose and long, involved, lifted finish. Great verve here, but I’d be inclined to hold for another 3-5 years to allow this to knit. A potentially grand wine here for the patient, that said if you like your Chardonnay coiled, this will strike your heart. Dang good and worth seeking out more. |

4/2/2024 - VincentMorey Likes this wine: NRAromatic lemon, lemon oil, flowers, light toasted oak, touch of brioche, lighter to medium bodied, with a feel of very refined confectionary sugar (without the sweetness) as the surface texture. A beautiful golden yellow color with 7 years of age and can age for a bit longer. A bit short on the finish but very tasty and easy to understand wine that will captivate even casual wine drinkers and provide relatively good value. |

3/17/2024 - lake.vino Likes this wine: 91 pointsNose shows oak, malolactic notes - in style, more true Bourgogne than Maconnais. Indeed, blind, it's nearly a village level meursault. Now, that ambition is rather fitting to the fruit in this - it held up nicely to the treatment. But then, labeled Macon? Hmm. Graininess, buttery, vanilla, lemon curd. Long finish. Nice acid, balance. |

3/17/2024 - Vinnut Likes this wine: 91 pointsLight golden yellow in color. Forward & attractive nose of ripe citrus fruit aromas of lemons/limes, apples & peaches with overtones of mineral & floral notes, stony, chalky & a slight hint of toasty oak. Medium-light bodied with a very good concentration of balanced & smooth texture, crisp & zesty, ripe fruit flavors of lemons/limes, apples & pears with stones, minerals & a hint of toasty oak. Lingering crisp finish. Drinks quite well at present although it should develop further with additional aging. |

2/24/2024 - portman63 Likes this wine: 91 pointsSolid medium-bodied wine with some crisp apples and minerality along with a bit of floral character on the nose. A solid match for herb roasted chicken. I think these get better and fuller with 5 years of age so I don't drink them too soon after release. Should be good now and for another two years +. |
