Absolute banger for the money. One of the best white burgundy values at the moment.

Medium pale straw . Lightly Smokey citrus with white flowers and some reductive stuck match character . On the palate quite intense and very well balanced with fresh acidity and good extract . Still quite young with citrus dominating , some light mineral hints in the background and a good herbal tinged finish . Very good now but can surely age well a further 5 years . At Hawksmoor , Liverpool , 18th Jan 2026

Medium lemon yellow . Slightly struck match character , afterwards some lightly toasty notes with yellow fruits, citrus peel and quite strong mineral component. On the palate this is quite rich , but really well balanced with bright acidity . Creamy citrus peel and that chalky , mineral note from the nose . Really fills out on the palate , and ends with good freshness and lemon rind notes . Drinking well now but will continue to show well for another 5 or so years .

Superb. Great balance, buttery and rounded, not so much minerality. Lots of florals on the nose
