Ch…

A classic take on a Burgundian Chardonnay minus the oak-iness, which means it’s extra fresh and extra fruity.

The “attack” (the beginning of the sip) is a controlled burst of floral green apple, ripe yellow grapefruit and a touch of exotic fruit. The mid-palate is dominated by a mouthwatering acidity (again, well-controlled) easily flowing onto a consistent finish.Another well-made wine by Domaine La Cotelette really conveys confident, expert low-intervention winemaking from this young winery.

An exciting wine to open on a special occasion. For those who like cellar wines with good ageing potential, Ch… is also a great prospect. Serve chilled but not very cold (30-40 minutes in the fridge). Open 5-15 minutes before serving. A total of 2,100 bottles were made in this 2020 vintage.
