Domaine de Villaine Côte Chalonnaise "Les Clous Aimé" Blanc

40,00 €

We have great faith in so-called "small" wines, such as wines from the less pressed regions of Burgundy. At a time when Burgundian wine has become a luxury item, appellations of origin such as Cote Chalonnaise are still a fantastic source of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir with prices that still tread the earth. The great Pierre de Benoist shows an extraordinary commitment to the limestone terroir of the Bouzeron slopes within the Cote Chalonnaise. There, from different vineyards of southern exposure, he produces the white "Les Clous Aime" Chardonnay, with organically grown grapes and biodynamic practices. Harmonious, with ripe fruit, vibrant minerality and an ideal barrel background, tthe Les Clous Aime will unfold more and more over the years.

More info

In the background, the noble hints of oak provide the framework for the extremely ripe fruit to "shine", reminiscent of white peach and ripe lemon. The palate is delightfully delicious, medium-bodied with nice creamy textures and notes reminiscent of pastry cream but with plenty of freshness due to acidity and minerality. In its youthful period you will enjoy to the maximum the high energy and vivacity of its youth. Give it time and it will dial down the tensions while developing a distinctive, complex, delightful, toasty and smoky character. The value for money is very good for white Burgundy and especially when we are talking about such a top producer.
