Surprisingly fresh (I had other 2006 from this Domaine that were oxydized). Nose is on apple and touch of honey. The palate is fresh, pleasantly large and finishes with nice bitterness. Really nice but time to drink I think.

Awesome! A medium-bodied straw-colored Macon with a slightly creamy texture; citrus fruit flavors and aromas are rich yet balanced by crisp acidity and some minerality. Distinctive vanilla overtone on the nose. Overall runs more towards Meursault in style than Chablis, and certainly head and shoulders above most Macon offerings I've experienced. A wine well worth tracking down for mid-term enjoyment. Steve Tanzer thinks this needs more time, but I don't see that. On the other hand, his review is 18 months old now.

Peach and smoke on the nose.
Full bodied, fruity and alcoholic with a slight buttery finish.
