Floral scent. On the palate, pineapple, pear, dried apple, flowers, hay, fig, almond, bergamot, with a lemon peel, orange peel, stony, mineraly finish. I little too much citrus and it feels too tannic to me. Maybe some more time? Also, over-ripe fruit flavors (I thought the same thing when I drank the 2005). Very good, but I liked the Rollin Pernand Vergelesses Bourgogne Blanc (from the same vintage) a little better. I felt like that wine was a better match with the food, while this one overpowered things a little. I was hoping for more.

Solid and tasty, perhaps a bit over-priced @ $40 but varietally correct with nice minerality, citrus, apple, pears, and austere but creamy tart finish.

This is a nice Chardonnay from Burgundy. Nose comes with toasted oak and yellow fruits. Taste is creamy but comes with a good acidity backbone. Lacks a bit of personality and minerality. Slightly over-oaked.

This is really quite attractive. Medium yellow. Reticent at first, it took about a half an hour to open up on the nose. Then, beautiful aromas of tropical fruit, lemon curd, minerals and cream. Very full and rich fruit in the mouth, but it also has excellent acidity. The balance is spot on. Flavors reflect the nose and really come out on a beautiful, long finish. This is a gem. 4-13-17-9: 93/100. Probably will read and even higher score with some bottle age.
