Star bright pale yellow with green highlights. Inviting nose and medium palate of green apple, honeysuckle petal, and a hint of balsam on the finish and light vanilla overlay. Firm medium plus acidity from entry to finish makes for an excellent meal accompaniment in the style of Côte Chalonnais white, which makes sense as winemaker Laurent Montelieu is originally from Burgundy. Heck of a price for an actual Burgundian style, too. Enjoy with lemon-garlic Pacific salmon, roasted or fried chicken, scallops, or a wide range of “white wine” fare.

Straight cherry and cherrywood nose. Balanced and full bodied. Pinot for sure. — 7 years ago
Very tasty and simple rose. Strawberry, mineral, lime, white peach, and floral notes. Very easy drinking without too much acid. — 3 years ago
Really great slightly chilled. Fruity but still has personality. — 8 years ago

Clear, dark ruby kn the glass. Violets and ripe black cherry on the inviting nose; echoed on the medium palate adding some tarry red apple and juicy (medium plus) acidity. Tannins are negligible but just present enough to -- with the acidity -- make a classic "New" Burgundian style PN. Salmon (Pacific) or duck would be classic, but this "universal red" is great with most anything. Drink now through 2027. — a year ago
