Nose shows a distinct orange blossom note with lemon and nectarine. Palate has a note of shortbread along with light stone fruit and citrus. Medium weight. Not a real hefty wine but good fresh fruit expression. Could use a tad more acidity. Very nice. I believe this is 50/50 Meunier/Chard and it drinks that way. This could go another decade fine but it's drinking well now and I don't see that it has the build to improve a lot.

Very interesting Champss as one given the base is 60% Pinot meunièr. Very much more rounded mouthfeel. Opened Up later on first glass into more chocolate and complex.

Fine but seemed pretty generic.
