Nose: Apple, greenish, mineral , a bit smoky came later Palate: very dry, fruit quite lean, apple dominated, quite one dimension, greenish, mineral tone. Maybe vintage character, not recommended, very green through drinking.

Annual Bolomey, Sprezzatura & Clavelin Wine Tasting (Restaurant Choux, Amsterdam, NL): Like the Fidèle 2012 tasted just before, this is a beautifully precise expression of grape and terroir. It is quite a forceful Chardonnay (even in 2011), but with the mineral freshness to balance the weight of fruit and the absence of dosage lends the wine a very clean and pure feel.

Disgorged Feb 2014. Pale gold. Pronounced aroma of red apple, honey, chamomile, peach. Dense with touch of almond, mineral, sour plum.

Two visitors, three birthdays and seventeen wines from all over. (ABA Turkish Restaurant): Quite high in acidity and the bead is initially a bit too frothy for my taste, but there are pleasant apple, citrus, biscuit and chalky mineral flavors and aromas. Clean and refreshing and much better once the bubbles calm down. B+.
