This is at peak. Rich yellow fruit, quite deep, savory, showing some age but not past prime. Worked really well with cooked Japanese flavors. Top notch chard on the richer side.

also intense. absolutely mouth coating. Unlike the '10 Marnes Bleues, this came across as confected leading us to hypothesize if there might in fact have been some botrytis action going on

Ganevat Dinner (San Francisco): The most floral of these wines with white flowers, minerals, yellow fruit, and quite a bit of richness and weight on the nose. Nice acidity with more lemon notes, minerals, and high intensity on the palate. Long finish. This started out slightly effervescent and maybe a bit volatile, but that blew off complete with air. What emerged was a beautiful wine!

We would not have guessed Chardonnay, if blind. There’s an apple cider character that we found excessively prominent on the first two days. It showed best, smoothing out a bit, on the third and fourth nights.

Very pronounced honey nose, mineral palate with good acidity. Give it some air
