Bourgogne Chardonnay, Domaine Benoit Girardin 2023
"Sourced from a parcel in Santenay, this Bourgogne Chardonnay is approachable and aromatic, with perfumed tropical notes leaping from the glass—pineapple and ripe lemon dominate the nose. On the palate, it's full-bodied and vibrant, with refreshing acidity keeping the tropical fruit in balance. Ready to drink young." Our note Son of Yves and nephew of Vincent, Benoit Girardin has steadily carved out his own reputation and is already turning heads in the Parisian restaurant scene. 2023 was a standout vintage for Girardin, delivering both quantity and quality. While white yields were typical, the reds saw an unprecedented abundance. The whites were harvested first, beginning on September 7th, with the reds following on September 10th. Whites show a harmonious balance between sugar and acidity, with greater maturity and slightly softer acidity compared to 2022. The reds are all 100% destemmed with no fining or filtration, while the whites retain purity and definition with meticulous filtration.
Gonzalez Byass Matusalem Oloroso Dulce Muy Viejo Sherry (Half bottle)
