15’Morlet Coup De Coeur Chardonnay.
This wine is unapologetic for being a bully.
Dark golden in color. White orchard fruit, pear, toasted brioche. Still somewhat tightly wound up.
It’s got another 4/6 great years in it.
ABSOLUTELY my favorite Chardonnay from Luc thus far!! Highly recommended. EDIT- just can’t believe how much better this is tasting then his prior vintages. EDIT- Never have had to edit something twice. It’s even better.

Beautifully done, big and meaty. Chalk and flowers, nicely layered. Food wine.

Another 4th Friday for the books, and one of the best of the year!

I think this was my white wine of the day; insane! Sweetened popcorn kernel, butterscotch, lemon meringue pie; incredible complexity; honeyed walnuts and lemon tart. A top end west coast Chardonnay.

Reminds me of the Marcassin with more depth. More grilled pear and grapefruit notes. Some nuttiness to it. Lemon peel with a creaminess to it. Wow! White of the day?

13' Morlet Coup De Coeur Chardonnay. Luc is the man. This is a Chardonnay I recommend throwing it in a decanter for an hour. Tropical explosions, great balance & just the perfect amount of acidity. LOVE this❤️! The best selected barrels each year. Many more great years in it. Edit- The last glass was better then the first. I hate that. 96+ points all day!
