March 14, 2010 - Light in colour. Toasted oak nose dominates, vanilla with a bit of citrus. A lively attack on the palate, mineral, fleshy, balanced enough. The oak was well integrated but maybe a bit overwhelming, perhaps masking some of the finer points of this wine. Short/Medium finish. A pleasant enough wine. Would buy again.

4/1/2008 (link)(Gambal Alex Bourgogne Chardonnay Cuvée Prestige) Whilst this is a barrel selection, they usually fin that year-in, year-out it is wine from exactly the same producers that is chosen. There’s a little more oak (20%) and a high proportion of the grapes are sourced from the Hautes Côtes. The nose is not so deep as its sister cuvée but it’s wider and more interesting. More citrus bite, more dimension and an improvement in the finish too - this is quite a big step-up
