This limpid, light golden Chardonnay was vinified entirely in stainless steel and allowed to undergo full malolactic conversion. Uncorked and poured, it delivers aromas and flavors of citrus, pit fruits, honey and white flowers. Light-to-medium-bodied, seamlessly alcoholic (13%) and with enough acid to keep things interesting, it stays solid in the middle and concludes with a medium-length, mineral-driven finish. This is a credible entry-level white Burgundy that won't break the bank. Drink now-2024.

Bland. One note - clay. No zest or punch at any point.
