Product Description
DR94 "There is a generous ripe apple fruit with an edge of citrus to this wine, accents of fresh white flowers and marzipan and a firm saline mineral underpinning. The texture is rich, yet there is plenty of energy to carry this to a pleasantly long finish. The grapes are from one hectare of the Pernot family holdings, planted by Alvina's grandfather, Paul Pernot and replanted to Chardonnay in the 1990s. Although Blagny is not mentioned on the label, this is where the grapes are grown." CC for DR Nov 2023
Allen Meadows for BurgHound writes, "Here too there is smoky note suffusing the aromas of pear and apple compote, lemon rind and a similar array of pretty floral elements. There is even better mid-palate density to the utterly delicious and beautifully textured medium weight flavors that possess a highly seductive mouthfeel, all wrapped in a lingering, firm and equally well-balanced finale. More depth would be welcome but even so, this is already lovely." Published Jun 2024
