  Helles Strohgelb, breiter Wasserrand. Die Nase ist recht schwach, etwas Ananas, Limette, Kamillenblüte.
  Am Gaumen im Antrunk recht breit, dichter Körper, wieder Ananas und Zitrusfrucht aber auch bananig und recht vordergründige Fassvanille. Wirkt etwas plump und in Finale deutlich bitter. Da hat wohl 2018 seine Fussspuren hinterlassen.

  Had higher expectations for this wine, I chose it to go with some scallops for Christmas eve.
  
  If it were at a blind tasting I would have guessed a regional burgundy white, maybe a Hautes Cotes, but not a Beaune Premier Cru!
  
  Nevertheless, a good acidity, some fresh pear aromas, and a medium length.
  
  Maybe this needs to age a bit more (?)
  
  At this level and for this price, I would not buy again.

  Yellow and white fruits as well as some minerals in the bouquet and on the palate. Ok acidity, but overall not very exciting, but surely an ok wine.

  Lemon lime, pear, almond nose. Lively palate with very nice acidity and structure, medium+ finish length turning more nutty at end. Similar notes to nose with addition of some flinty minerality. Really nice, balanced and lively chardonnay.

  Nose of caramel and distant smoke. Toasted marshmallow flavors with oak spice, dried pineapple, and some salinity. A nice pop of acidity on the finish lifted the general mellowness of the wine.
