Theres a little grassy/green element that on first sniff made me think Sauvignon Blanc, but bottle shape convinced me to not guess that. Is this Chardonnay? Ripe for sure. When Cathleen confirms Chardonnay I go with ambitious Macon from a very ripe year (2015?). Peach and tropical fruits, some acid but quite sweet, Im surprised its the 2017 Roulot Auxey-Duresses blanc. Its would be ok if $20-25 Macon, but€¦€¦ B-/B

Quite sweet sounds odd for Roulot. Maybe it's a function of the
ripeness of '15?
