"Bright, pale yellow. Subtle, pure aromas of lime, peach and flowers. At once drier, less fruity and more backward than the Charmes, offering flavors of apricot pit, lichee, white pepper and mint. This youthfully disjointed wine shows no easy sweetness today but it should make a more intriguing drink than the Charmes three or four years from now."

The Cote de Beaune's largest white-wine village, known for rich, nutty, buttery Chardonnay of generous texture.
2015 in Burgundy was warm and dry, yielding concentrated, powerful and opulent reds with ripe tannins from low yields; the whites are richer and generous, though some show comparatively lower acidity.
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.
