Grand Cru Chardonnay firing on all cylinders—power meets finesse.

Opens with crushed limestone and honeyed citrus. Muscular yet refined. Rich yellow orchard fruit unfolds—golden apple, Meyer lemon, white peach. Toasted brioche weaves through mineral backbone. Palate delivers serious concentration without weight. Electric acidity drives through layers of complexity. Subtle spice from premium barrels never overwhelms. Finish stretches endlessly—wet stone, candied lemon peel, almond paste. This 2015 hits peak drinking window but will reward patience. Classic Bâtard architecture: broader than Chevalier, more elegant than Corton-Charlemagne. Sauzet's precise winemaking shines. Exceptional Grand Cru expressing terroir with authority.
