Terrific example of a refined Chardonnay - this producer has scaled back from the overblown style of us really days and now offers a beautifully balanced wine reminiscent of Meursault with its flinty, smoky character.

Lemon curd great acidity miners notes and well integrated oak. Could blind as Burgundy.

Taste like a lemon cheesecake. The notes of acacia and butterscotch are faint now. But this has depth and length, talk dirty to me and a piercing line of acidity running through.

Solid for the price. Great acidity and oak integration.
