La note tient compte du prix. Apparence limpide, claire, jaune mimosa. Nez généreux sur des notes lactées (beurre) et de vanille. paille sèche. Le fruit est très discret, carambole (?). En bouche, c'est frais et léger, lait vanille, bel équilibre sucrosité-acidité. Peu ou pas de notes boisées, si on attribue les notes lactées à la fermentation malolactique avancée plutôt qu'au chêne. Persistance de moyenne à courte. Un des rares bourgognes blancs disponibles au Canada offrant un si bon rapport Q-P

Tasted earlier in the year with similar comments except this bottle didn't quite "wow me" quite as much as it did in February (although I still think its a great value at under $20). I just wish more stuff from California could be close to this good for the same price.

Jancis Robinson wrote that it was lip-smacking and gave it "seize" out of "vingt". I would say oui oui. I loved the freshness of squeezed lemon and grapefruit with a tart fresh citrus palate with acidity that cuts through the fatty oils in my cooking with a finish that satisfies my mid-week hunger for things Burgundy. Started this at dinner, I am staring at the 65 year old vines' knees of this bottle and will probably finish it before midnight. More please.

A bargain (only 12 $). The producer is good and so is 2010, very good taste, not complex or long, but just so well balanced.

Notes of white fruits and crisp acidity with a straight forward finish. A nice moderately priced Bourgogne Blanc.
