Tight as in "everything right".

2016 Domaine Marius Delarche Pernand-Vergelesses Les Combottes Chardonnay
REALLY liked this. Pineapple Lifesaver (was always my favorite in the tube), the lemon custard in a lemon chiffon pie, crushed oyster shell minerality and salinity. Shades of Puligny here. Great entry, midpalate, and long finish. Perfect with scallops.

2017 Domaine Vetriccie Île de Beauté Blanc 50/50 Vermentino/Chardonnay Corsica
A beautiful, food-loving wine of the Mediterranean earth, as someone else said. Lush, piercing, and gritty. Expansive middle, high quality finish. Fantastic QPR: just $11 in my neighborhood.

But

2017 Domaine Vetriccie Île de Beauté Blanc 50/50 Vermentino/Chardonnay Italy

Italy? Ile de Beaute is Corsica (France)

AH, Dale, thanks for the correction.
