Completely naked and minerality stripped version of Chardonnay, with oyster shell spice and a lively herbaceous addition. Long, elegant and juicy finish.

Superb. Vibrant, powerful and complex. Limestone chalk soils. Peach, Apple, perfume, mineral. Lovely floral tones. Medium bodied, juicy, fresh, mineral. Long length. Like a Puligny with a twist.
