Mâcon-Chardonnay 2016

- 88 points -

Bright straw-yellow color. Aromas of yellow peach, candied lemon peel and smoky minerality, plus a suggestion of toast, with hints of exotic fruits emerging with aeration. The wine's lemon and white peach flavors display lovely cut and precision, with the white chalky soil giving the wine excellent inner-mouth tension. This juicy, leanish, lightly saline wine finishes with noteworthy energy and verve.
