A truly brilliant wine that I had for lunch when in Beaune during Easter.
Lots of lime, butter, all spice and a wonderful balanced taste and finish.
It is easy to perceive the quality of his wine-making when you taste his wines. The first thing you notice is the sheer deliciousness: we are talking about intense, yet elegant and exquisitely balanced Chardonnay. In addition they have something that it seems only great whites from the Cote de Beaune are capable of delivering: an intensity of minerality that weaves in and out of white fleshy fruit, flowing into a long finish where everything comes together into a clear, balanced and pure mineral-driven focus.
Lovely stuff!
