Color: light gold Nose: lemon, slate, orange peel and kiwi. Oak manifests in a light vanilla. There are some notes of honey as well as incense and butter. Good focus and power Palate: still packing a punch. Aromatics confirm the nose and the acidity here is now between medium and medium-high. Body medium-full. A pleasant bitterness Finish: medium-long
Great wine, had from Magnum p&p and then some leftovers on night two. Held impeccably, we can probably go a few more years here. With air opens and really blossoms, a food wine, ideally simple seafood fare. Had with halibut, absolutely perfect

Slightly creamy - went through malo. But there’s a beautiful tingly acidity that balances it out, and the two work nicely together. Has the length of a great 1er cru. I really like this vineyard and producer.

Very clean elegant. Has a light texture that matches well with some richness on the palate. One of my favorite Lioco wines.

Very clean. Citrusy, lemony, floral up front and a crisp apple came through as the wine opened up. My kind of Chardonnay.
