Really nice for the price, around $12-14. Apple, peach skin, hint of spice, gravely minerality and lively acidity.

A bit austere. Opening up nice after a bit. Dramatic acidity.

limestone--paler than the trois pecheurs saint veran, not quite as smooth and maybe slightly more acidic $27

Falls flat. Hot. More alcohol taste than fruit. Not a fan. Taste like cheap excuse for a Chardonnay.

Clean pure Chardonnay flavors of underripe pear and peach, with lemon oil and a chalky minerality. This is exactly what I want in an affordable Maconnais.
