  Medium lemon in color. The reduction from its younger days have worn down, leaving an exclusive Puligny-like nose of sweet spicy oak, lemon peel, smoke and butterscotch.
  Wonderful nerve and concentrated fruit flavors of lemon and rocky minerals. Long bone-dry finish.
  
  The only thing holding this back from being an absolute top notch wine is the complexity, it could have had some more detail. Then again its not even a single vineyard, so kudos to Julian on an outstanding village wine🙏
  
  Did I mention the lemon?

  Excellent Chardonnay with crisp overall feel.
  Bouquet is dominated by citrus fruits, some lime an yuzu. The palate is fresh and long at the same time with a good overall balance. I think it will age gracefully for another decade.

  [Tasted blind] Some reductive flinty notes, great 'sharp' fruit (citrus, green melon, white peach). High acidity, medium+ finish. Great showing of this bottle

  醒酒一个半小时，淡金黄色，闻香有一丝烟熏，芝麻香，柑橘和核果的香气，入口酸度很高，是三支同时登场的白葡萄酒里酸度最高的，酒液很咸，感觉结构很挺阔，咸矿石的口感，青柠混合着白花的香气，酒体很干净，如饮清泉，余味是柑橘和白花，还有淡淡奶油饼干的味道。

  Apple, citrus and elevage notes. Quite high acidity, good density and length, still young and needs some more years to be fully approachable. Very Burgundian in its making.
