"The yellow/orange-colored 1998 Chardonnay / Welschriesling Trockenbeerenauslese Nouvelle Vague Number 7 exhibits aromas reminiscent of poached pears, flowers, and candied berries. It is medium to full-bodied, ample, velvety-textured, and crammed with fresh pears, apples, oranges, white flowers, and jammy apricots. It is rich, broad, lively, has exceptional acidity, and an impressively long finish."

The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
