Popped and poured, natural cork. Really pleasant and typical nose of citrus and grass, with an herbal fleck here and there. The palate follows, not overtly fruit driven but still ripe with pink grapefruit, toasted pineapple, and some lychee, plenty of hay and green herbs. A slight creaminess balances the strong acid. The finish isn’t so long, but isn’t short either.

The wine is clear, with lemon color, and thick legs.
On the nose the wine is clean, with medium primary aroma intensity of citrus fruits, lemon, lemon zest, grapefruit, herbaceous.
On the palate the wine is dry, with medium plus acidity, medium alcohol, medium body, medium plus primary aroma intensity of white fruits, pear, tropical fruits, mango, apricot, floral notes, white flowers blossom. Finish is long.
The wine is of a good quality overall, as it is showing good balance between fruit concentration and acidity.
The wine was quite youthful during the tasting, however showing quite clearly the style, and I think it is not very complex, mostly fruit driven, but the winemaking is very good here.

Les Tontons Trinqueurs Tasting (Beaune Burgundy): Walkaround tasting with producers. Fun wine young, well balanced, emphasizes ripe, forward fruit for now.

This is a fine Gerard Boulay Chavignol.. It's a beautifully summer wine with a nice finish.
