2013 Bouard-Bonnefoy ?Les Vergers? Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru I understand low-sulfur so I thought I?d beat the premox. Sweet ripe pear, some oak and butter, big. Doesn?t have the minerality I was hoping for. B-2018 Bonneliere(Plouzeau) Rive Gauche Chinon Rose This is sweeter than expected, modest acids, lots of strawberry but not a lot of interest,. B-
2018 Commanderie de la Bargemone Rose (Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence) Crisp, raspberry and citrus, light but fun.
