What to Expect

While Burgundy is renowned as the home of Pinot Noir, it is also the source for the ubiquitous Chardonnay grape. In these gently rolling hills Chardonnay achieves some of its most profound expressions. Appellations such as Meursault, Montrachet, and Corton Charlemagne proudly take their place among the most sought-after in all the world of wine. With a richness and complexity few wines can match, Chardonnay from Burgundy adds classic hints of flinty and chalky soil with nuances tones of nuts, cinnamon, honey and butter to the rich, sometimes unctuous but rarely heavy, ripe orchard fruits that the grapes are capable of providing. White Burgundy can improve in the bottle for decades and is arguably the most age-worthy dry white wine in the world.

Very clear and high toned with lime zest and pith notes over a bed of lightly oaked, subtle yet complex fruit tones. Lovely in the mouth with solid acids supporting a broad fleshy yet fresh mouthfeel with a touch of vanilla and hint of fresh baking spice embedded in rich apple, citrus and subtly tropical fruit tones. This has it all, richness, a suave feel and freshness. This is youthful and will improve with a year or three in the bottle but finishes with excellent minerality and length with a great finale of ripe orchard fruits, lime oil and a hint of baked pie crust. 90pts

Subtle vanilla nose. Sunny and vibrant. Notes of yellow apple and autumn ripen pears.
