Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Clean and fresh with excellent purity and a lovely touch of minerality, I was completely taken with the charm, bouquet and flavor of this superb Burgundian Chardonnay. It is a delicious white wine bargain with a delicate nature and has the scent and taste of elegant Puligny Montrachet. I drink it..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"A light smoky note weaves in and out, with blanched almond, white peach and straw flavors lingering nicely through the stone-tinged finish. A textbook Pouilly-Fume, with length and precision..."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Servin’s 2010 Chablis Les Pargues is stunningly beautiful. It boasts crystalline precision in its aromas and flavors. Floral notes lead to crushed rocks, slate and lemon peel in this fabulous Chablis. This is a great showing from Servin’s entry-level offering."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This delicate white, displays notes of orchard blossom, candied lemon zest and tangerine, with a minerally subnote that builds toward the finish. Shows good concentration in a dry and elegant package, with a long, finely textured finish."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"... Reverdy’s 2011 Sancerre Cuvee Les Coutes delivers an almost sweet impression of lime and Persian melon garlanded with freesia and lily. Black currant, sage, and nettle add pungency to this very ripe melange... This generous, luscious 2011 finishes with outstanding, multifaceted length..."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Beautifully pure, with salted butter, chamomile and quinine notes lacing up a core of creamed Jonagold apple and lanolin flavors. The long, creamy finish lets the chamomile edge play out elegantly."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Chantemerle’s 2011 Chablis Fourchaume is gorgeous. It shows no hard edges in expressing the personality of the year and its origins. The Fourchaume is a bit more floral, lifted and refined than the straight Chablis. A hint of sweet white peaches wraps around the inviting finish. This is shaping up..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"A reserved and elegant nose shyly suggests aromas of mineral reduction, citrus and tidal pool nuances that introduce beautifully detailed and seductively rich flavors that also enjoy plenty of dry extract that adds a sense of volume to the bone dry and highly persistent finish. This is really a..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Fully mature, with a creamy, fresh butter edge to its peach, plantain, almond and melon notes. Lush finish has a lightly nutty edge but stays pure and defined, with hints of heather and beeswax. A lovely example of the mature style."
