Le Roi Des Pierres

Domaine André Bonhomme

Les Pierres Blanches Viré-Clessé Chardonnay 2022

Producer: Domaine André Bonhomme

What to expect:

* Nose: Ripe lemon, yellow apple, pear, white flowers, a touch of honey.

* Texture: Creamy with excellent minerality and a long, saline finish.
* Style: Elegant rather than powerful.

Spice, mineral, red fruits, early-season raspberry, and compote. Really aromatic and so pretty. Elegant, architectural, generous, with fine tannins and a long, wispy, dissipating finish. Elegant fruit and real length. — 10 days ago

Last bottle, best bottle. Big bang for the buck, punches way above it’s weight, etc. Cherry, sun dried tomato, hot rock, lavender and such. Excellent. — 4 months ago

Young, but great upside potential. Old vine Marsanne from the lieu-dit Aubert, east of the Sainte Epine vineyard. One of the original St Joseph appellation parcels, tended by Trollat for decades according to the spec sheet. Delightful. — 5 years ago

My bottle was tight as well. But this was NUTS out of barrel. I have faith it will blossom.

Aged in Stockinger barrels. Spicy, with a touch of wood and cake spices. No sulfites. Juicy, clean and remarkably pure, with gras texture balanced by freshness. Gentle, delicate, deep and explosive all at once. — 8 days ago

A wonderful Mount Veeder Cab that has aged elegantly.

The nose shows blackcurrant, blackberry, and plum laced with savory notes of cedar, tobacco and dried herbs. The palate is concentrated yet vibrant with silky tannins has firm grip, finishing long with hints of cocoa and espresso.

Restrained power and finesse, Yannick brought both Veeder’s rugged characters and French precision. Last bottle.

It’s fun drinking Grand Crus, but it’s tough when they’re opened alongside “lesser” red burgundies that are drinking better (at this moment in time). Like many Grand Crus, this comes off as one dimensional but clearly singing its own beautiful song. — 7 years ago
