"65-year-old organically grown Chardonnays have given this 2020 a lovely golden glow, which calls out for its aromatic complexity: licorice, verbena, jasmine and vanilla. The palate is lively and energetic, centered on citrus fruits and a fine minerality that give it great depth and length. A great bottle to reserve for a choice dish, such as lobster à l'armoricaine or pan-fried foie gras escalope". (Le Guide Hachette 2023)
