I was not as enamoured of this wine as some of the other posters in this forum. I found it too big, modern and oaky, lacking in acidity, and nothing like a white burgundy. Lots of pineapple, meyer lemon and vanilla. Tasted blind, I would have sworn it was from the Sonoma Coast - which begs the question, why would I pay a premium for a French wine that imitates its California counterpart, when I can get the real thing for about half the cost? Another example of making wine for Parker points.
