A splendid 100% Chardonnay from 5th Gonon’s generation family-owned vineyard. Their cultivated plots are located by the proximity of the celebrated Solutré limestone escarpment, which is known to have a solid influence within the Pouilly-Fuissé appellation. This translates to highly enticing flavors, balanced ripeness, that crossover between nose and palate. Yet, the progression of tropical fruits and a hint of caramelized notes and taste makes it really rounded and homogenous. The mouthfeel is integrated with a hint of toasty notes that pushes the finish over 5 seconds. This wine gives you the run for the money! — 8 days ago

The Mâcon-Vergisson, Cuvée Antonine Lachaize is a distinctive Chardonnay sourced with grapes from less than 6 miles from Mâcon, sharing and facing same terroir of the famous domaine “Roche de Salutré, it provides an authentic baked pear aromas, well-balanced on the mid-range palate with some yellow apples taste and a very soft toasted notes. Barely any cream or butter-like mouthfeel, and stays on the lighter side, not lingering finish. — 8 months ago

As can be seen, got the last dregs. Way more herbal than the Gonon, but still a youngster at 16. — 9 months ago

A very palatable Chardonnay sourced from a vineyard located in Vergisson, which faces the prominent “Roche de Solutré” within <6 miles from Macôn. It displays all about balance between acidity and creaminess, white florals on the nose, some appealing citrusy notes, yet an inviting minerality provides a great balance as soon the wine navigates through your palate. Overly clean with some distant Quincy notes as well. It is a splendid casual sipper! — a month ago

For me the current best wine in St. Joseph. Just a stunning stunning expression of St. Jo. Nose is insane. The most detailed olives ever. Just gorgeous. Also herbs de Provence and so much granitic intensity. Also dark flowers. Dark blueberry fruit and dark berry fruit. Just so deep, intense and utterly brilliant. I love this wine. Wow that palate. So so elegant and juicy and with achingly beautiful finesse. My god this is so delicate and I am sorry but this has more elegance than. Gonon. Just wow. The concentration is off the charts and my goodness the inner mouth olive flavors intermingled with wild mint are to die for. Unreal refined and classy tannins and is juicy, balanced and perfect. Wow. Can’t wait to see what air does. 9.8 for now. With some short term air the nose is just crazy. So complex and floral. So sleek and juicy and man those tannins are all class. The quality of the fruit is exquisite! — 8 months ago
