Community Tasting Notes (8) Avg Score: 90.1 points

  • Occasional dinner group. Keller, Coche Dury, Guigal La Landonne plus some ringers. (By PVa @ Monarh in Tilburg, The Netherlands): Nuts and smoke. Hazelnut, minerals and quite mature on the palate. No score.

  • Still bright and fresh as a daisy with some sulfur that blows off quickly. Limestone, lemon curd, asian pear, and florals in this beautifully lifted nose. On the palate, it's bright and refreshing with a gossamer frame that carries intensity with a sense of delicacy. More limestone chalkiness, citrus and orchard fruit, marzipan, and deftly balanced wood. Its acid has mellowed some since my last bottle. Terrific balance, effortlessly beautiful.

  • La robe brillante présente un début d'évolution. Plus du tout de notes de réduction. Le nez est expressif, sur des fruits jaunes, des agrumes, des notes de craie. La bouche est ronde, avec une belle richesse tenue par une structure finement acide. A bien tenu face aux cuisses de grenouilles !

  • Light golden, with a fresh bright nose with matchstick and citrus, asian pear, and a load of limestone-minerality. Fresh, clean, and precise with great tension and flavor density without weight. There is a nervousness that I love in this wine. It's a little coiled up. This is more mineral than fruit driven , but there is plenty of density to the fruit even if it doesn't scream at you. I very much enjoy the brightness of this wine and the cooler side to the fruit that adds to the whole for me. As said before by pifcho: chard for (acid and) rock heads. Lovers of ML driven chardonnay stay away. FWIW a sensational pairing with panko crust pork chops, fennel salad and homemade salt preserved meyer lemon. 91 pts

  • Absolutely loving this tonight. Chard for rock heads. Interesting nose of fig, crushed rock and a hint of mint. Intensely chiseled, mineral palate. Laser precision and fantastic energy. Enough white and citrus fruit to keep it from going austere. Super long finish. Wish I had more.
