It's a little shy at first, then gains confidence, starting to strut its stuff, delivering white peach and grapefruit, spiced up with ginger and a fleck of fresh herbs. The palate has depth and generosity, with the oak flavouring an interplay. Yet fine acidity keeps it tight, as moreish sulphides kick in, adding a savoury edge and a lingering finish.

Chardonnay of the highest calibre. Minerals and pears kick off the array of aromas. Beautifully integrated oak, which is as close to invisible as one could wish. A hint of honeycomb, followed by stonefruit notes, a weave of grapefruit and nuts. An elegant and expressive chardonnay, nicely balanced. There is an underlying gentle, but pleasing, smoky touch. The wine offers good acidity and excellent length. A superb chardonnay in the more restrained sphere. More Grand Cru Chablis than Meursault. Great value when compared to what is asked for some other top flagship chardonnays.
