98-100 RP. "The creamy, flamboyant 2012 Chardonnay Cuvee Indigene (a whopping 563 cases) tastes like a magnificent Batard-Montrachet from the glory days of Michel Niellon during the decades of the eighties and early nineties. Abundant notes of tropical fruits, citrus oil, orange blossom and hazelnuts are found in this full-bodied, deep, sexy Chardonnay. This compelling effort represents a beautiful synthesis between a French grand cru Burgundy and a full-throttle California Chardonnay." Wine Advocate #210, Dec 2013 |
