2014 Montanet-Thoden 'Galerne' Bourgogne Vezelay Chardonnay organically grown on clay and limestone, 30km south of Chablis heading towards Beaune. No oak, marked by high acidity, aromas of tart citrus fruit, lemon & lime, some cardamom spice, stoney texture and a medium long salty finish. Prefer it when served not too cold. Popular wine in Parisienne wine bars. Nice! Suited to the more advanced 'Eurocentric' palates.

Nov 13th, 2017Whole cluster Pinot. Like a King-sized Beaujolais. Wild initial aromas of rhubarb, roasted meat and fresh mushrooms. After a while it gained a pronounced, serious, minerally characteristic, like sun-warmed granite.
