This is an elite German Chardonnay. Nose like a Meursault. Buttery, rich, and intensely mineral. Beautiful purity and depth to the aromas. Creamy, but so mineral. Has that classic Meursault thing big time. Palate is just a mineral bomb. So juicy, elegant and deep. Awesome freshness. Terrific power and concentration and so clean. The mineral power of this wine is awesome. What a finish and backend. Leaves the palate slathered. Nose becomes so mineral and floral with air. Wow. A great wine and value.

Smells like Meursault. Beeswax, butter, some ML rich aromas, salty, mineral, ocean breeze. Gorgeous and stunning. Palate is ripe and rich with a succulent texture and such purity. Terrific freshness and sweet fruit and oak is like a 5% accent on the palate. So well made. Terrific energy and lingering length.
