Zero expectations here, and I am now on the hunt for more. Absolutely killer and (evidently) a wonderful QPR.
Didn’t know what type of profile to expect here, but I (incorrectly) assumed it would be somewhere in the middle and while pleasant enough, nothing to write home about. What I found was a wine that reminds me an awful lot of Domaine de la Bongran’s EJ Thevnet (all time favorite of mine), yet dialed back just a touch. Light gold in the glass, big aromatics of ripe peach, yellow fruits, and a dash of baking spice. Texturally is leans bigger, but the finish snaps back with great acidity. Lemon cream, golden raspberries, limestone and a vibrant finish. Whereas the Bongran has a touch of sweetness, this has more of a small perception of sweetness. Loved it.

Still one of the best values in white burgundy. Quince, cheese rind, creme fraiche.

Beautiful Chardonnay featuring a light gold color. Aromas and flavors of honeysuckle, golden delicious apple, white peach, nectarine and lemon/lime. Lightly Oaked. Creamy texture and perfect balance. Long and luxurious finish. Quite good. Thank You Keith S!

Great bang for the buck burg with a nice round mouthfeel, god acidity and minerality, with a bit of stone fruit mixed in. Yumz!
