Thursday, March 28, 2013 - Two-thirds Chardonnay, one-third Auxerrois.
Served at 7C, allowed to breath and warm up a bit; sampled over an hour or so. Impressive nose, starts off perfumed, fruity (melons, nectarines, citrus) after 40-60 minutes, somewhat vegetal with guava notes. Settles down after an hour. Cirtusy palate; 25 second finish. When the glass is finally empty after 80 min what remains is a faint floral/honey smell. I think its at its best after an hour, but don't miss the interesting evolution. Good value. Interesting, but I wouldn't get a whole case. It's definitely ready now, but I would imagine it will last another year.
