Nose still has some oak. But it’s tasty sweet oak. So rich. Some yellow fruits as it opens. Some mirabelle plums. Getting great.
Palate is sweet wood. Deliciously rich. Yellow fruits. As it opens tart. Green apples. Lemon pith.

2019 vintage. Biodynamically farmed. Mainly Gros Manseng, with one third Petit Manseng and just a tiny percentage of Petit Courbu. Initially a bit shy, but growing on me. Ripe mirabelle prunes, rosemary and flowers. In the mouth it combines concentrated yellow stone fruit with flinty acidity. Long mineral finish with a distinctive saltiness. Intriguing wine that may not be a crowdpleaser, but it has tons of personality. — 2 years ago
Brut rose. Combination of chardonnay and pinot noir grates provides excellent taste — 3 years ago
A beautiful pink/peach color, with a dry fruity and flowery fragrance.
Drinks dry and smoothly with very subtle flavors of strawberry. Pretty light on the palate and finishes smoothly…very easy to drink!!

A perfectly decent classic Chablis. Green apples & melon, limestone austerity & salinity.
Starts off quite round, with ripe fruit on the forefront. But the acidity & mineral backbone quickly take over giving this delicious mineral & saline linear purity.
Juicy, savoury, fresh. Perfect with grilled mackerel!
Edit: tasted 6m later, with 10h (natural) decant. This gains in complexity pairing the slightly mushroomy, slightly waxy, Mirabelle infused roundness with the typical chalky razor acidity. This is a really nice one that will clearly gain with age! (Bumping up from 8.9 to 9.0) — 2 years ago
Drank at Mirabelle in Avon, has a sweetness too it but not too sweet — 3 years ago
This is what we strive to be...rich, but balanced. Stuff to show, not showy.
This is lively kickin' pretty perfumed mix of vanilla spice and citrus, with a saturated butterscotch glow. Yellow sour mirabelle plums and peaches. Swervy end note of violet and artificial grape. — 5 months ago
Biodynamic Pinot Blanc with a splash of Auxerrois.
Fresh nose, herby, salty, mineral with the typical Alsace note of summer meadow & ripe orchard fruit.
Nice mouthfeel, a bit rounder & creamier yet beautifully balanced with zesty acidity, ripe pears, Mirabelle plums and orange zest. Finished off with a mineral, salty, stony note.
Very nice for summer terrace sipping but also a great food wine! — 2 years ago
This pale lemony-golden wine has a lovely bouquet of a well-balanced fruit medley, including soft notes of golden and Granny Smith apples and green pears; bold but refreshing notes of lemon and grapefruit, and some nice round stone fruit n tropicals like white peach and honey dew. On the palate the alcohol isn't too stiff as can easily be the case with white wines. The fruit salad is impressively balanced with soft notes of golden apples, cooked lemon slices, mirabelle plums, and cantaloupe. The finish is just a tad thin but the mouthfeel still has a nice viscous weight to it. Overall this is a very good white wine for such an affordable price, and should go easily with many foods like mild cheeses, light brothy sauces, and summery grilled foods. Organic and vegan for anyone interested in that. — 2 years ago
