Lots of vanilla with Nice fresh tart. Subtle hazelnut bitters. Still a young wine. In my cellar it would keep for a lot longer.

This is BIG. Super powerful and muscular. On limestone do it's still got high acidity. Wrong classification by delectable. This is Tete le Clos

Closed at first, but opened up nicely. High VA plus a lot of richness makes for an interesting wine.

Really nice showing of Chardonnay. Already in a great place but should continue to get better.

Nose was full of earth and grapefruit, palate was a bit gone but even and great finish.

Very elegant with a good mix of fruit and minerality. Not too oaky.

Beautiful nose. Buttery and complex. Lemon with oil. Power and finesse on palate. Wow. Gordons. Mid slope. Perfect for chard.

This wine was excellent, thank you to our sommelier for recommending it with the beginning dishes of our 12 course meal. Science meets food, it was a great tasting experience with this wine.
