Community Tasting Note

  December 27, 2013 - I had higher hopes for this wine, and wanted to love it, as it sounded great on paper.
  Clay and limestone soils vineyard specific site. Good acid #s and pH. Stainless fermentation with Malolactic.
  
  It seems like this wine tries to have one foot in a riper style Chard, and another in restrained, bright, and accomplishes neither.
  
  Its not a bad wine, it shows citrus notes, decent finish, some roundness, but its lacking varietal distinction.
  Not having sampled much chardonnay from the Languedoc (Typically I look for Rhones there) I don't have a huge comparative basis but would be curious to know other farming and vinification details.
