April 12, 2020 - Lovley nose, struck match and some white blossom, serious structure, lovely mouthfeel with lanolin, nashi pear - acid and oak are in perfect harmony, lovely length finishing with a lick of lime - can't really fault it and plenty of upside from here - will look again in 2-3 years

April 11, 2017 - I actually found this wine tight and certainly in need of another three years. It came alive on day 2, beautiful peach and tropical fruits with a good acid structure.
Very much reminded me of the Jean Charles Fagot's 2015 Bourgogne Blanc, a wonderful generic blanc.

April 5, 2017 - Quite a big fleshy Chardonnay in a full bodied style. Lots of stone fruit particularly nectarines. If anything a touch flabby dare I say
May need more bottle age -

March 5, 2016 - Maybe still a bit fresh but this was really highly rated so I snapped up a bottle. A bit fatter than expected with a bright yellow colour and a creamy centre. Lacking in acidity a little for me but otherwise fine. Climbing off the hype train on these releases.
