Nice wine, but a little closed aromatically - light oak, lemon-lime. On the palate, the first taste is light nutty oak and warm fruit - melon, pear - but the finish is pronounced lemon-lime. Slightly unbalanced in that way - the warmer fruit disappears quickly. Medium bodied, with decent length. Very crisp. Excellent with food (shrimp with proscuitto, grilled vegetables in pasta).

(Bouchard Père et Fils Bourgogne Blanc Les Coteaux des Moines) A mix of parcels from the Côte de Challonaise and Meursault. Wide, soft but relatively precise nose with an impression of pear. The palate is slightly plump - for me I’d prefer a dash more acidity - and exotic. This has a good length and is sweet and tasty.
