Domaine de la Vougeraie
Le Clos Blanc de Vougeot 1er Cru Chardonnay
Vougeot, Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
Another excellent chard in need of a little more bottle age. Ethereal and a touch tense. Nose was a touch muted, but the acidity on the palate was bright. Finished briny with moderate texture.
From my Rick’s cellar - thanks, bud!

Always so dependable. Sumptuous layers or orchard fruit, lemon, flint and ginger with a powdered sugar finish. Bright acidity, mouth filling texture and a long finish.

Smoky, nutty, bright lemon rind. And the in the mouth gorgeously bright lemon curd, wet stones and grapefruit.

Tropical nose (ripe), smokey oak on the nose. The structure is leaner than the nose would suggest. Lots of acid and drinking young.
