pale greenish yellow colour. floral and herbal notes adorn a nose of just ripe white peach and pear. smooth, dry and acidic on the entry, orchard fruit fleshes out mid-palate with herbal spice accents. moderate-plus finish that draws out a chalky minerality.
good village-level Chardonnay that has upside potential with a couple of years of ageing.
13.5% AbV; from four different lieu-dits and vines ~50y.o.; ten months' ageing in oak (10% new)

Rounded with some fullness across the palate, but with some delicacy across the palate. Young now, lighter than I remember, we shall see.
