April 7, 2024 - This was a fan favorite at a 4-person afternoon gathering. Excellent QPR.

December 24, 2022 - Very classic. While I wouldn't mistake it for BdB champagne in flavor (it definitely tastes of Jura chard to me and that is a good thing) it's the spitting image texturally. Chiseled with refreshing acidity. Not the most complex but very tasty and great value.

August 4, 2021 - Almost sweet nose of apple and tree fruit. Dry, with elevated acidity, creamy mousse, and fresh apple and mirabelle flavors that dry up on the savory finish. Medium-bodied, with an impression of ripeness, but just 12°.

December 16, 2020 - Entirely hand-harvested Chardonnay. Whole clusters are gently pressed. Following natural alcoholic and malolactic fermentation the second fermentation is done in bottle; méthode champenoise. Aged 24 months on handriddled slats.
Aromas show a mixture white flowers and buckwheat with lemon and lime zest, apple, salted almond, bread loaf, farm butter and hints of chalk and mineral.
The mousse shows a persistent and fine bubble structure that is accompanied by a creamy mouthfeel and juicy acidity. Flavors reveal notes of buttered brioche and almond that lace notes of apple, lemon, mineral and delicate floral tones. The above moderate finish lingers. -

March 15, 2020 - Red and green apple, lemon, yeast, pineapple, herbs, chalk, and earth on the nose. Lemon, apple, stone fruit, a little yeast, nuts, saline, chalk, and herbs on the palate. Moderately tart acidity, good finish. This is the way I like chardonnay. I need to buy more.
