Reviews
"Made from 2 domaine plots and 6 more of purchased fruit. Pale lemon yellow. The nose has some stoniness to it but has a little less immediate fruit. A little youthful bitterness behind, otherwise fresh apple with a touch of pear. A well balanced Chassagne."
"Ooh – directly I like the energy and complexity of this wine – you have everything. Fresh, some weight, some minerality. Slowly releasing a long extract of flavour – you have to squeeze the flavour from your gums – long and tasty."
