WNH virtual tasting - great fun!
This presented in a somewhat idiosyncratic way. The nose displayed apples, pears and a touch of caramel. But the palate was like a chameleon - first, you noticed the typical Chardonnay signature, but it also displayed some SB like (sherbet) notes. A rare white from NSG, as this village, for the most part, produces reds. Medium weight and texture, with a balanced acid profile. Finishes with a flinty note. I’m sure that this wine would have baffled most in a blind tasting, including moi.

First wine of the night! Gorgeous, bracing acidity and minerality. Notes of fresh tangerine and lime - yum!

So unusual, chard from Nuits Saint Georges; smells very petrol (but not on the palate).

Elegant notes of lime and clementine, with minerality and a touch of saltiness.

Aging beautifully, notes of matchstick, flint, petrol, pear, and peach. Lovely texture and finish, supported by bright acidity.
