Really well balanced. The full aroma and taste come out when the wine warms up a bit

Elliott and I went to Paris for the first time, and this was a discovery from Verjus, which is now our favorite-ever tasting menu (it was our first dinner of the two week trip--of course!). On to the wine...this was electric paired my favorite seafood dish ever--seared scallops with fennel and potato purée and pickled radishes. Full of savory minerality, lemon zest, peaches, and a perfect structure, this is my new bar for Macon chardonnay.

Very nice. Sweet fruit and minerals on the finish . Not particularly complex but good value for the price .

Lacking a strong acid backbone... golden brown color...more of a caramel and spice...a little past it’s peak I think ....
