Stainless-steel vinification, 100% malo. 73% 2015 vintage and 27% from solera reserves. 10 months in stainless steel and 72 months sur lattes. Bottled May 2016. Salty caramel but imbued with citrus peel and a fine smokiness and lovely grip on the end. A touch of sautéed morels with a squeeze of lemon. Real beginning, middle and end to this wine, with masses of precise but generous quince fruit. Spicy finish.
Bulles, Philippe Pacalet 2020
Philippe Pacalet’s 'Bulles' is made with the same natural, minimal-intervention approach that defines his Burgundies. It's unfiltered and lightly hazy, preserving texture and purity. In the glass, it’s pale with a gentle cloudiness and lively, fine bubbles. Aromas of lemon zest, white blossom and fresh orchard fruit mix with subtle brioche and a savoury nuance from the natural fermentation. On the palate it’s vibrant and linear, with crisp acidity, soft mousse and flavours of citrus, pear and crushed rock, leading to a dry, lightly saline finish. A brilliant companion to oysters, gougères, sushi, fried chicken or soft, creamy cheeses. Philippe Pacalet is easily one of our favourite Burgundians, combining a wicked sense of humour with his own bold approach to winemaking that has placed him at the forefront of the Cote d’Or. What else would you expect from the former winemaker at the illustrious Domaine Prieuré-Roch?
