2020 VDF 'Premier Grain'

Grain par Grain

Regular price $70 750ml Sale

Chardonnay from Bugey in the commune of Gevrin. Clay-limestone terroir. Crushed then pressed in a vertical ratchet press, 9 months of aging in tank. This was Caroline’s first ever plot, hence the name, Premier Grain.

A little reduction on opening, you can let this breath. The nose reminds me of the wines of George Comte from the Jura. Straight, with a mineral edge, and hints of cheese rind. Very straight and linear in the mouth, with flavours of lemons and apples. Herbaceous hints for a pleasant bitter finish.
