"A great introduction to this pleasure wine up for grabs!"
"Chardonnay Arbois 2022 presents notes of lemon peel, candle wax and yellow apple of measured intensity. White almond adds nutty complexity. More captivating on the palate than on the nose, the 2022 ends with an elegant, playful finish." (Vinous 2024)
