A wine of incredible purity. Drinks like a great white burgundy with a little less acid and without oak. Chalky, pear skin, lemon juice, and yellow floral notes. Very good. Hard to justify the price though.

Dinner at Jade Court (Chicago, IL): Served double blind. Seeing the wax top, I jokingly said this was the Envinate Tiganan (no, of course it isn't). In any case, intensely mineral and fresh, but also with a very mild waxy quality on the palate. This is a somewhat demure wine right now, tasting a little angular to me. Good acid, but I wouldn't mind a slight bit more of a cut overall.

A lineup of wines from the South of France in Carpe Diem wine bar (Budapest): This reminds to good Champagne in many ways. Quite an oxidative style, with brioche, walnut and some bruised apple notes on the nose, but it’s so elegant. Completely dry, tight, pleasantly phenolic on the finish. You also get some oak on the palate, but it’s so effortless and refined. Real class here.

Real quartz in blanc.
Really unique and valuable performance.
Impressed aroma, acidity, texture, mineral, finish.
Treasure in the east France.
Recommend!!!
