Aromas of dried lemon, green apple and fresh herb such as lemon grass. Pine needles. White peaches. Full and layered with wonderful density and a freshness at the same time. Very creamy. Drink or hold.

The 2014 Chardonnay Belle Côte has similar white peach, crushed rock, crème brûlée, tangerine oil and orange marmalade notes. Like its younger counterpart in 2015, it is about as close to perfection as a Chardonnay can achieve. Both have a good ten years of upside. And the super-rare and luxurious cuvée of Point Rouge is largely a barrel selection from the Belle Cote cuvée.

A classy effort, with a mix of ripe pear, honeydew, honeysuckle, citrus and light cedary oak, all well-proportioned. Ends with a layered aftertaste that shows a touch of pithiness. Drink now. 3,011 cases made.
