This is everything great about ripe, tropical Chardonnay without any of the overwrought discord of many warmer climate examples of the varietal. Mango jungle rain from Beaujolais.

Cote D'Or tension from Beaujolais. This parcel is only on limestone. Very, very good and amazing quality for the money

Mid gold, waxy peach skin, dry, bright acidity, full bodied, elegant juicy yellow fruit with a splash of lemon and oak. Enjoy now or keep for a couple of years

This is nice - I had it about a year ago (8.8) and now she's really coming into her own. Super-ripe almost funky 🍄 melon and mineral on the nose (more than most chards will give us). The melon carries through to the mouth with a silky malo texture that almost imparts a sense of residual sugars. It's only the finish reminds you that this ain't from one of them fancy parts of Burgundy like Cote-DU-Bone.

A good value at $25
