90 Points

Friday, March 3, 2023 - The palest of yellows color reminiscent of a varietal other than Chardonnay; Sauvignon Blanc comes to mind. Lemon is the most noticeable first impression. Quite acidic, astringent and racy in the mouth -- and narrow -- this wine moves front to back rather than side to side. A tart long finish. Very little sense of mineral, terroir or wood. Steel tank fermentation? A reference point, this Bize reminds me of a Chateau Montelena, which typically does not undergo malolactic fermentation as far as I know. A wine best drunk with food in my view.
