Very solid entry level (recently released) white Burgundy. Light yellow color with a few green highlights. Faint aromas of citrus and green orchard fruit, white flowers and raw nuts. Flavors of unripe peach, green apple, lemon zest, raw almonds and a hint of minerals. Medium length finish and bright acidity. Creamy and supple texture (Full Malo) and lively acidity. No sign of oak aging. Well balanced and versatile. Outstanding value. Thank you for the sample, Kase. — 6 days ago

2021 vintage. Decanted and passed, with high air, between two decanters four times. If it were Caymus, woulda used a blender and forgotten. Last tasted 8.5.26 (9.6) Older (60's, 70's and early 80's) vintages more fruit driven which is quite the surprise in the current Napa Cab climate. Arguably the best GDL Private Reserve this estate has ever made. That goes back six decades. Supple, velveteen entry without the temptations of appearing over-extended. Structured mid-palate. A seeker's wandering, yet undeniably substantial finish. Taste it and you tell me. — 20 days ago

Pale yellow color with a few green highlights. Aromas of citrus zest, white flowers, chalk and raw nuts. Flavors of lemon/lime, peaches, nectarines and a bit of brioche. Medium-plus finish and a creamy texture from malolactic fermentation. No sign of oak aging. Pleasant texture and mouthfeel. Light bodied and bright with excellent purity of fruit. Some really great Chardonnays are coming out of the Maconnais. Appreciate the sample, Kase. — 6 days ago

2020 vintage. 375 ml bottle. Tasted after 30 minutes open. Medium body. Some ripeness buttressed by remaining acidity. Had picked up 5 cases of this 2.75 years ago with a dearth of white Burgundy half bottles due to the truncated 2021 and 2022 vintages. Down to a case. Not a fave producer but they often deliver in the absence of other, potential offerings. Showing well currently. 5.31.26. — 5 months ago

Reliably consistent introductory Red Burgundy. Bright garnet/ruby color. Aromas of fresh red fruit with hints of red flowers and subtle spices. Flavors of red berry fruit (strawberry, raspberry and currants) with additional flavors of red licorice,baking spices and earth. Long, crisp and fresh finish. No sign of oak aging. Medium bodied with a very silky tannin structure. Granted, it lacks the complexity of high end Red Burgundy, but this wine’s fruit forward simplicity is charming. There is a time and place for this easy drinker. Thanking Keith S and Ron B for sharing this bottle. — 12 days ago
