Pale lemon with simple aromas of stone and tropical fruits with floral spice notes. On the palate flavors of apple and pear with spices. Short finish, high acidity ending with mineral fruit character. Just Ok, simple.

Pale lemon with stone and tropical fruit aromas. On the palate flavors of apple and pear overpowered by floral spice tones. Very lively acidity, medium finish ending with fruit and spice. Tasting Sample.

Vintage 2019 | Chardonnay without wood ripening, so very fruity smell with peaches and bananas. High acidity, good luncheonwine. | Paired with a dish from plaice fish and gamba’s. | at Auberge du Bonheur

Lots of well-rounded flavor, with a clean and light finish. Interesting range as the temperature changed

So oily and clean. Full bodied and waxy. Pears on display, hint of green apple and sunshine

Excellent dry Chardonnay. Nice flavor. Not a good Chard for lovers of buttery, warm notes.
