"Decidedly more austere with simply incredible purity and focus plus outstanding intensity. This is a dramatic wine yet perfectly composed with a pronounced stony quality that permeates the character of this from the opening notes to the firm, powerful, wonderfully long finish. Sappy, dense and palate staining in its intensity, this is a real stunner and not to be missed."

Produces steely, mineral Chardonnay from Kimmeridgian limestone in Burgundy's cool north, prized for precision, purity and saline drive.
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.
