Community Tasting Note

88 Points

Monday, March 25, 2024 - From 75cl, good cork, P+P, improved in glass. Oak, mango, lemon, a hint of melon. Bright but not overbearing acidity. All you want from a New World oaked Chard at this price level, and frankly more than you could reasonably expect. Meursault it ain't; nor is it the peak of Sonoma or Tasmania. But the previous CT TN (denesdanielsomm on 22.02.2024 78P) is way out of line. There is simply no justification or excuse for rating a product of this honest quality—and fair price, at the 15€ retail I paid—at such a punishingly low level. 88P
