23 such a great white vintage. Raise a hand if you prefer White Burgundy over Ca Chardonnay.
I commented on @Jay Kline or @Andrew Cullimore post that I really love this producers style. It is distinctive to me. It’s elegant, lush and plush. Their wines wire to wire have such beauty and elegant consistency
The nose is inviting with lime-skin (inside & out)- pulp, juice, Meyer lemon skin-pulp, kiwi, pineapple, tropical melons, herbaceous, volcanics, mint, deep chalkiness, sea spray, sea fossils, gentle white spice, cream, caramel, sunflowers, white spring flowers & jasmine.
The mouthfeel is round, lush, viscous & somewhat waxy. Lime-skin (inside & out)-pulp, juice, Meyer lemon skin-pulp, kiwi, pineapple, tropical melons, herbaceous notes, toast, volcanics, mint, deep chalky powder, saline, sea fossils, dry twig, soft oak powder, limestone marl, gentle white spice w/ palate heat, cream, caramel, sunflowers, white spring flowers & jasmine, waterfall acidity, well balanced, nicely tensioned /structured, good length and a beautiful, elegant 90 second finish that sets on white spice and minerals.
In 2015, my wife and I spent the morning & afternoon w/ Olivier touring the vineyards, cellar and then had a long lunch tasting 8 of his wines. Absolute gentleman. Always wearing his signature a ferdor hat. — 4 days ago
This was slightly muted when 1st opened & really opened up with an hour of air. Notes of red cherry, berry with lots of spice, earth, mineral & violets. — a month ago
2020 vintage. Slightly underwhelming with a lack of personality on the finish. The meet and greet with the canapés and cocktails on the initial and mid-palates were definitely covered tho. 4.18.26. — a month ago
Interesting palette not sure I ever tasted such an herbal wine before. Nose: cherry, orange? Taste: cherry, rhubarb, unidentified herb? Definitely a new try but very interesting and I did enjoy.  — a month ago
