Classic Chassagne-Montrachet Chardonnay with lift and richness. Bright gold with green highlights. Aromas of mayflower, acacia, honeysuckle, verbena, and hazelnut, with hints of toast and fresh butter. Flinty minerality gives cut and length. With age it gains notes of honey and ripe pear. The palate is rounded and opulent yet balanced by freshness, finishing long and persistent.
