Piercing chalky and mineral notes on the nose are just as persistent on the palate. Great concentration with precise aromas of green apple, grapefruit, lime and lemon. Tight structure with brisk acidity and a long finish that carries a subtle and pleasant hazelnut touch. Tempting to drink now but will reward the drinker who has the patience to wait 5 to 9 years. Well done!
Complex notes of vanilla, butter, hazelnut and mushroom are mingling well with the lemon, apricot and pineapple aromas. Full body and richness balanced by searing acidity. Long, lingering finish with pleasant salty tang. A bit tight right now and definitely benefits from decanting. A delicious match with gnocchi butter and sage served with a sprinkle of fresh Parmesan.
Quite fresh and juicy with bright citrus and stone fruit, slightly honeyed texture, well balanced, and a lingering, delicate finish. A blend of Gros Manseng and Sauvignon Blanc.
This wine attests to Mâcon as a great destination for those seeking delicious Burgundy at an affordable price. Medium body with fresh acid and delicate notes of mushrooms, lemon and butter. A great match for wild mushroom risotto.
Pale silvery yellow. Faint nose of gooseberry, grapefruit, lemon, and a hint of fresh oregano. Light-bodied with too-high acidity, thinly tasting of candy apple and marmalade. Drink immediately upon returning from the dépanneur.
Pale gold. Fairly strong and attractive nose of canned pears and peaches with banana and butter/lipstick overtones. Medium-bodied with slightly thin peach and pear flavours and a nice bitterness on the finish that makes this, like many Rhone whites, a versatile food wine. Drink now.
Organically made. Medium-deep old brass colour. Big nose rises out of the snifter with honey, ripe pear, stewed peaches, raw tobacco and caramel — aromas do not get much better than this. On the palate it offers golden raisins and ripe peaches and pears, but the alcohol is a bit hot and the finish is woody.
