Bright cherry, some white floral notes, a bit of effervescence, and hints of bay leaf. Fruit is intense and feels closer to new world, but there’s depth and earthiness that maintains the old world charm. — 13 days ago

This opens up after several minutes and the initial acidity recedes. Flowers on the nose, dark cherries, fresh apricots, plums lead off. Next up are apples tempered by vanilla, with soft tannins and an acidic finish. — 8 months ago

Weeknight treat. Medium body, creme brulee on nose and some custardy finish but great acid. Just so many great things to love in this chardonnay. I still prefer Ma Belle Fille — 2 days ago

Ruby. Oak, vanilla, black currant. Tannic. Later on, turned into smooth with cosmetic. Elegant! Is that Hermitage? Enough decanting is necessary to enjoy the real taste. Fayolle Fils & Fille Les Dionnieres Hermitage Syrah 18 @11440, AD, 240509 — 2 years ago

Purple, light pigment extraction, excellent clarity. POW! Raspberry and soy notes in the nose, layers of berry flavor and cola spice depth, light seed bitterness and skin astringency on the finish. — 3 years ago
