We have monitored this wine over the years and good to see it evolve and improve. Probably at its peak now. Firm, mineral and devout of the fatty chardonnay side once comes across in Burgundy, this is a focussed and precise wine, more mineral than anything but with a round core and polished acidity. Very solid and a joy. Fresh and vibrant. 93 and drink now

We haven't had one of these for like 4 years (Rated 90) so nice to come across it again. The wine feels very young still and fresh. The assimilation of oak is going the right way but its still evident. Very primary still. Green apple, lemon, general citrus. Good structure and lots of length. Pretty solid wine at this stage and time will only make it better. 91-92

Clean and well made, crisp and yet, totally not for me - has a note of fennel or some herb that is off-putting, plus a real sweetness that is unpleasant. Others like this more, which is fine.
