Holy cow! What an amazing value --- uber clean, super crisp, beautiful white flower and faint green apple skin fruit. I'd be keen to have a solo cup of this thrown in my face halfway through a marathon.

Wonderful French Chardonnay in stark contrast to the Cali Chard across the table. Light oak with more of a steely, crisp taste. Rather "bright" for a Chardonnay. Very clean taste. Paired beautifully with this yellowfin tuna carpaccio

Nose has apples and pears. Some straw. Moderate color. Really wonderful wine.

Complex white Burgundy (Chardonnay), crisp with green apple notes and a little chalk, at the Paris Creperie in the Seaport, Boston (and Urban Grape)

Franclieu has purer, more intense and subtler fruit.
