Mouth watering acidity. Citrus fruits, stone fruits, some green fruits too, buttery, creamy, oaky, minerality, this wine is a full package, you can taste it all and everything is so well balanced. Not those super heavy chardonnay you got from USA and Australia, but you can still feel the weight. An exceptional wine, and I'd say it has entered its best drinking window, drink now, but don't serve it too cold, 12-15°c would be best.1 person found this helpful Comment -

February 21, 2021 - Pale gold in color. Looks younger than I would expect after a decade. Citrus and stone fruit on the nose, some honeysuckle. Dry and luscious on the full-bodied palate, with medium plus acidity and notes of white nectarines, and oyster shells. Good minerality, well integrated alcohol and oak. The weight gives this a luxurious feeling that to me is very Meursault. The finish is savory, saline and long.
Bought this at the winery in Beaune in 2013. Glad I waited to drink it. It is drinking beautifully now.1 person found this helpful Comments (2) -
