The 2021 'Ma Belle-Fille' flashes light yellow and gold in the glass, with a stunning array of yellow spring flowers, honeysuckle, jasmine, and honey forming a highly fragrant nose supported with notes of fresh peach, vanilla cream, and marzipan. The soft entry leads to a rich, multilayered midpalate with great depth and concentration. This is a focused, precise wine with a remarkable length that promises to reward cellaring for a decade but can be enjoyed young.

Pouring a youthful yellow hue with silver highlights, the 2021 Chardonnay Ma Belle-Fille is ripe with fresh apricot, orange blossoms, and delicate baking spices. Full-bodied, with a fresh, clean texture, a rounded feel, and no harsh edges, the palate reveals fresh notes of cantaloupe, pithy citrus, vanilla, and flowers. Drink 2023-2033.
