Some positive development in the bottle since my prior experience about two years ago (2018).
Struck flint, green apple flesh, citrus peel, light tropical fruit notes, medium acid levels but slightly clunky (citrus pith) on the finish, not detrimental, just waiting to come together more. Needs time, likely 2-4 years would be a benefit.
(With extended airing, the finish has smoothed nicely.)

Rich, elegant minerally, a hint of oak.

The material is weaker than that of Mademoiselle, but an exquisite winemaking.

A very nice Chardonnay from Givry, drinks well young.

too much oak, bitter with barely any fruit... you have to buy and hope it will loose its makeup in time...not worth it.

Wouah!
Oct 29th, 2018Feels more like a great California Chardonnay. Oak and butter not ideally integrated, and there is lack of depth and substance at the foundation. Has very high quality fruit, pure, nuanced, transparent and concentrated, it is just that the structure and foundation cannot support this thick layer of fruit.
