On the palate, the wine is described as "taut and precise" with flavors of grapefruit and tangy orange peel. Martin highlights the wine's "wonderful depth" and "razor-sharp acidity," which provide balance and structure. This Chardonnay is characterized by its ability to deliver a refined and sophisticated tasting experience, making it a standout among its peers.

Martin awards the wine an impressive score of 90, emphasizing its status as "one of the best Bourgogne Côte d'Or wines that you will find in 2023." This accolade underscores the wine's superior quality and the skill of its producer, Alvina Pernot.
