I re-learned how good this producer is. It’s complex, layered and textured, with just the right amounts of almond, brioche and honied notes on the nose and mid palate. While the acidity is fairly restrained, this presents like it has many more years ahead of it. There’s an informality and freshness to this wine which belies its quality and sheer elegance. If you don’t want to spend on Aubert, Kistler et al., you should pay a visit to this producer.

Opened a bit tart, almost like it was an over abundance of acid. Quickly developed into really sublime flavors of light citrus, crisp, unripe, honeydew, some good floral, almost gardenia notes in it.

Absolutely an amazing wine! Thank you @Ron R for recommending this! I am experiencing so many elements at the same time. Reminisce of an aged Chenin Blanc where you get creaminess almost wax cheese rind and honey. Picking up an almond sticky bun. Not really acidity but unique freshness of lemon, peaches & yellow apples. Golden hay in color, Med+ body w/ nice long finish. Drinking this w/ a nice chill presents some nice acidity. Hard not to make a comparison (sigh) to something I paid a lot more for and enjoyed...not so much! Love the balance and 13.5 alc.

Golden straw, lemon nose, caramel notes, white pepper. Lots of caramel yellow apple, some flabby lemon but also decent acidity, fair amount of cream. Seems just slightly out of balance but may just be in dumb phase.

Beautiful color. Clean, fragrant, all the classic chard notes put together beautifully
