Tasting Notes
In the glass, this 2018 shows a bright, elegant profile with a polished mineral edge. The nose opens with ripe white fruits such as pear and apple, lifted by floral nuances and a subtle hint of spice. On the palate, it is generous and well balanced, with layered fruit, fine acidity, and a fresh, vibrant line that keeps everything in harmony. The finish is long and persistent, suggesting excellent aging potential over the coming years, where it should gain even more complexity and depth.

Production
The grapes come from Les Ruchottes, a monopole vineyard in Chassagne-Montrachet, where the limestone-rich soils and excellent exposure help produce wines of finesse, tension, and character. Harvesting is typically carried out with great care to preserve fruit quality, and vinification is handled with a light touch to emphasize purity and terroir expression.

Food & Serving
