Appearance: clear, medium gold. Nose: medium plus intensity. Aromas of white orchids, honey, blue cheese, smoky, savoury, white peach, nectarine skin, Fuji apple. It’s developing. Palate: dry, medium plus acidity, medium plus alcohol, medium plus body, medium plus flavour intensity with savoury, honey, floral, peach skin notes. The finish is medium plus as well. The acidity carries through the wine really well. Balanced and very intense fruits with a lot going on but still fresh and vibrant. The finish is lingering. Well aged and drink in great shape now! Awesomely made MR chardy and worth its fame!

Sunflower yellow; lean, sleek yet plenty showing on nose; palate very similar, well built. Holding up well.

Contrasting with St Aubin ‘16, the tropical notes & ‘sweetness’ poke out. Well balanced & now signs of decline.

I like this quite a bit, too bad it’s not available in the US. More earthy, complex and interesting than the usual boring Sonoma chards.
