Clean, crisp and mineral-laden, this straw-colored Chardonnay represents good value for a white Burgundy. Bright aromas of lemon zest, wet stones, citronella and pears are followed by comparable flavors on a light-bodied, fresh, seamlessly alcoholic (13%) palate. The middle is solid and the back end is medium in length. Those needing a Burgundy "fix" at a reasonable price will be delighted with this one. Drink now-2022.

Mineral, some smokiness, cool green and citrus fruits, touch of oak. Quite linear with refreshing acidity.

Frederic Wildman Luxury French Tasting (Peninsula Hotel - Chicago IL): Tasting, brief note. Apple throughout comes across as nicely rich to start with supporting minerality coming through middle forward. VG for its level.
