February 9, 2019 - La couleur assez foncée laissait présager un vin oxydé. Pourtant le nez est bien net et la bouche est encore étonnamment fraîche, même vive.
Clairement un cas de "l'habit qui ne fait pas le moine".
Plutôt élégant, sur les fruits jaunes, l'écorce de citron et cette belle acidité qui fait saliver. Un achat étonnant à moins de 22$ qui a vieillit en beauté et qui n'a pas encore dit son dernier mot... -

May 25, 2017 - Véritable eau de roche, le vin est pure et cristallin et démontre une minéralité certaine. Il livre de jolies flaveurs de pomme verte, de citron, de cire d'abeille et de pierre mouillée. La bouche est tendu, rocheuse, droite et salivante, avec une belle chaire fruité, tout en équilibre. Il se termine sur de fins amers, avec un jolie fond crayeux. Excellent rapport Q/P!

December 31, 2016 - Inexpensive crowd pleaser. Little background funk on the nose. Ripe yellow apple. Round mouth feels, with a dill finish.Paired well with NYE lobster risotto.

September 13, 2015 - An affordable white from the Maconnais. Lightish body with a pale gold color. Green apples and citrus on the complex nose. On the palate the acidity is in balance - present but it won't take the enamel off your teeth. Pleasantly long finish. I largely agree with Mr. Chaterjee's tasting note below, but I rate the wine higher. For an everyday Burgundian white this is a good value, especially considering the next significant step up to a Premier Cru could easily cost you 3x or more.
