2010 Fauquette. One of the best sous-voile Chards I've had in a long while. Don't Fauquette about this one.

Ripe tart apple on nose slight oxidative notes but very fresh wine. Great acidity on palate with notes of minerality.

Golden, honeyed, ripe-fruited, with subtle sous-voile notes. Ripping acid to match the rich texture.

Seemless. Really elegant and complex. A bit oxidative but seems just right at this age.
