Note di degustazione
(picked before the rain--"not too ripe but the grapes were fragile and we were afraid they would turn if we waited another day," said Gon): Bright yellow. Tangy aromas of orange, apricot and honey show good lift. Rather fine-grained and elegant, conveying an attractive light touch. Not particularly long but nicely done, showing good concentration and energy.

Argilo calcaire. South facing and the earliest ripening. Rich and broad on the palate but without much aroma. A little stolid. (JR)
The 2013 Mâcon Chardonnay Clos de la Crochette has a much more complex and defined, mineral-driven bouquet than the previous crus. The palate is brimming over with tension and poise, with an intense citrus finish that is long and persistent, perhaps a touch spicier than the 2012. This is the front-runner for Dominique’s best 2013 once bottled - and I cannot wait to taste it then.
