Medium lemon color with fresh fruit aromas of stone and citrus fruits with some floral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, lime citrus and pear, lively acidity, with flinty notes. Medium finish, ending with notes of fruit, citrus and mineral spice character. Drink now!

Thin body, fresh, slight hint of tropical fruits. Acid but also a bit sweet...

The venerable Jadot winery was established in 1859, but the family was digging around in the Burgundy soil a good 30 years before that. His Mâcon-Villages Chardonnay is ubiquitous. I'm convinced some people think Jadot is French for Chardonnay.
Nose and palate, this unoaked full Chardonnay is loaded with apples and peaches, sweet and ripe. The freshness is a zippy delight and cries for oysters or shrimp. Minerals are plentiful, and the finish shows a citrus edge.

Pale lemon in color.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with mild complexity, and a soft mouthfeel.

Showing red and yellow apples with light wood, spices, limes, grapefruits and sea salt.

Medium finish with limes and almonds.

This is a tasty Chardonnay from Burgundy. Not complex, but easy drinking and good by itself or with food.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

88 points.

Pale lemon with aromas of white stone fruits, citrus, honey and floral scents. On the palate peach, pear and lemon, well balanced, crisp, lively acidity, medium length ending with chalky mineral character. Very nice! Good value!

This unoaked Chardonnay is a good food wine, but is marred by a sour acidic tang to the finish. It tastes of lemon-lime citrus fruits and pineapple. I can scarcely believe I am writing this, but we have here a wine that would benefit from a touch of secondary malolactic fermentation.
