The 2016 Chardonnay Cuvée Anne Rose has nuanced aromas of apricot

This is aromatically less refined but more complex with its pungent nose of hazelnut

minerals and maple syrup

youthfully austere and mildly rustic finish

It was my last port of call during my week in Tokaji and I visited with winemaker Istvan Bai

Eugenie, Vosne-Romanee Clos d'Eugenie other_regions The 2016 Chardonnay Cuvée Anne(a monopole measuring . 57 ha). Here the fruit is more from the red side of the spectrum and while the nose isnt quite as spicy, it is both more elegant and airier. The delicious middleweight flavors possess a more sophisticated texture along with a subtle bead of minerality on the firmer, moderately austere and slightly more persistent finish. This too is very good for its level and worth considering.
