Still rocking! As Girardin joins a small group of vintners (in my mind) that can make a great Chassagne that lasts. So many disappointments lately

Pale lemon-gold. Crisp nose of lemon and other citrus fruit, green apple and a strong mineral presence. Balanced and soft palate, with great acidity ending with a long mineral finish. Delicious.

Excellent combination of mineralogy and fruit to make an extremely drinkable and complex flavor.

Great bouquet of citrus and a light touch of wood. VG+ mouthfeel with a lingering tart finish
