Burgundy precision meets sherry saltiness & freshness. Medium weight. A favorite. Dresner imp

2nd time, appreciated even more-blanched Jura style perfect pitch somehow, not a classic Burgundy style AT ALL, more for those who dig the funk

Not 4 all but love this slightly oxidized, plump but clean style. This maker makes from grapes in diff terroir incl Jura- this betrays his roots. Plus a good value.

I have said mean things about the wines I'm the past. No longer.

Wanted to test the waters of buttery Chardonnay, and it was a no go. I'm glad I tried this. The wine was complex enough to still be interesting, but I think I'd prefer something more balanced.

Beautiful straw color. Peaches and white flowers on the nose. Nice balance of acid and minerality with a little malolactic butter on the finish. I think I taste oak and a little jam. Preserved stone fruit

Half oaked? Balanced Chardonnay fruit, mild acidity, lively on its own and lively with food.
