  • Complete description

    Vintage Description:

    The 2020 Chardonnay is pure and fresh on the stony, very intense and concentrated nose, where the lemon and mirabelle aromas intermingle with sur lie and vanilla notes. Silky, enormously salty and pure on the palate yet also with body and intensity, this is a rich and tightly structured, not massive but enormously complex and promising Chardonnay that might tun out as one of the finest. (Stephan Reinhardt - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, June 2022)
