CHÂTEAU MONTLANDRIE Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux 2020
The 2020 Montlandrie has an intense spearmint-scented bouquet that feels just a bit one-dimensional at the moment. Perhaps it is going through a dumb phase? The palate is medium-bodied with slightly rustic tannins, a bit dry and stolid toward the finish. I wonder if the fruit might fade before the tannins polymerize? I gave this a tentative reception before, and this seems to vindicate that it's not the best Montlandrie in recent years. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting.
PETIT CHABLIS Domaine Moreau-Naudet 2023
Lovely, bright and fresh with lime peel and gooseberry aromas, this has a floral note and a gentle, soft aroma. The texture is balanced, lively and refreshing. The grapes are from a 3ha parcel between Beine and Courgis on the left bank; they are gently crushed and fermented in tank to produce this wine that should drink marvellously well on release and over the next several years.
