Burgundy, France
2017; Mother's Day 2022.
Raiding the wine cooler at my parent's house. Many bottles we've gifted them over the years sit patiently, as they barely drink wine anymore... 🤷🏻‍♂️
This bottle is in a great zone, the inexpensive '17 Burgundy blanc's are quite enjoyable now.

Vidal Fleury was founded in 1781 by Joseph Vidal functioning as the oldest winery in the Rhone Valley. A blend of 80% Grenache, 15% Syrah and 5% Mourvèdre, dark red with aromas of black fruits and subtle floral scents. On the palate beautiful red berry fruits with cacao and spice. Soft tannins showing maturity, lingering ending with a good hold on the fruit and spice. Very nice, great to drink now.

On the palate ripe fruits with oak notes and tangy spice. Medium+ length, lively acidity ending with a crisp character. It’s tasting great now. Tasting Sample.

On the nose; candied meyer lemon, green apple lime, pineapple, green melon, bees wax, honey notes, saline and spring flowers.
On the palate, the body is thick & waxy. Candied meyer lemon, green apple lime, pineapple, green melon, bees wax, honey notes, saline, beautiful soft chalkiness, sea shells and spring flowers. Nice round acidity and rich polished finish.
Excellent QPR Village wine.

Shows the purity and almost weightless character of 2014 white Burg.

Great example of a renowned wine maker taking village level seriously - because his name is on the label.
