Pale lemon with aromas of stone fruits and blossom notes. On the palate flavors of ripe apple and mango with notes of wet stone. Vivid acidity, medium+ finish, very soft ending with sweet notes. Nice value!

Almost like meursault lite. Strong toast and richness mid palate, vibrant acidity, minerality and big food friendly finish.

Lemon and mineral with light oak. Simple but delicious.

Extremely fruity with lively acid. I like a bit more austerity in my Pinot. This level of ripeness bodes well for better wines from this vintage.

Hint of lemon and Mango, light oak, fine mineral on the palate. Pairs nicely with fish and seafood.

Served too warm on Japan Airlines flight. Quince on the palate which was interesting. Round, not crisp.
