Nice light and crisp Burgundian nose and profile. Good minerality, a little oakiness on the palate (im sensitive to it), but far less than many Californian style chards. Not bad on day 2, slight oxidation but still good. This is a great value and highly recommended if you've not had many white Burgs and would like to try one.

Mild citrus. Good balance with hint of buttery flavor. A refreshing difference in a market environment with a large number of high alcohol acidic wines.

There's a touch of RS here, which would make it a crowd pleaser for domestic drinkers. Nose and palate show peach, pear, pineapple with some orange and cream. Pretty impressive.

This really opens up nicely. Aromas really picking up steam. Lemon citrus, edgy lime leaf, a dense minerality that suggests a a diamond in the making. Not any real overt oak showing in the aromas. On the palate, a little creamy nature, but again, neutral barrel at most. Acidity is there, but doesn't really present itself until the finish. Not that it creeps up on you or anything, but the density of minerality up front, does a good job of shielding it til I really want it. Very nice at $18.

Pretty enough at this price, if rather hollow.
