Definitely oxidative, which I was not expecting. It's like a more drinkable vin jaune. Surprised by the style, but taking it for what it is it's solid.

Quite delicious and refreshing on a hot summer day. Zingy with citrus but finishes with a bit of sweetness, 12% alcohol, making this very easy to drink. Great with cheese.

My second time looking at this wine this month. A light yellow-gold in the glass; slightly reticent nose - it is interesting, yet also somewhat indistinct, so difficult to really pick out a stand-out item or two.
Light-bodied with bracing acidity on the palate, and nice persistence on the finish. I have more experience with Belluard's Gringet-based wines, but this is starting to grow on me.

Light gold colored in the glass; slight oxidative note on the nose that lends some complexity, along with ripe apple fruit.
Interesting wine - as I often note with Tissot's Chardonnay, the word that comes to mind here is savory. Nice length on the finish, and this almost has an off-dry feel to it, although analytically I am sure it measures as dry. I can't say that I like this anymore than Belluard's Gringet wines, but it is something I would buy again.

Loved it tonight with sushi and latkes. Citrusy and crisp. Delicious.
