This bottle is a terroir super nova, possessing all the regal structure, three dimensional fruit and impossible to mimic soil character that makes top white burgundy the standard against which all other Chardonnay is judged.“ - Ian Cauble, SommSelect

Jun 12th, 2020A bit richer than I expected, a nice Chardonnay from the maconnais. Lemon and wax, mouth filling, acid a smidge less than expected.
I went back to this on day 3, and this is really singing now. All of the pieces are seamless and that lemon pith minerality really shines through. Would increase to a 9.1. Maybe one to decant.

May 23rd, 2020Nose is ripe yellow fruit, mineralogy and creaminess. Ditto palette, alongside a salinity and weighty mouthfeel. Medium high to high acid. Really great stuff that grabs your attention!
