JCP Maltus, Le Nardian Blanc 2018
Le Nardian is the product of a wager between their now-retired Consulting Oenologue, Gilles Pauquet (also consultant to Château Cheval Blanc, Figeac and Canon) and JCP Maltus, that a low cropped white would see similar benefits to a red wine. Le Nardian has, as one of its major components, Muscadelle - a cousin of Viognier. They manage to get an almost Rhône-style sense with the wine as its aromatic quality comes to the fore.
Pouilly Fuisse JA Ferret 2023
J.A. Ferret Pouilly-Fuissé is an elegant, mineral-driven Chardonnay from Burgundy's Mâconnais region, crafted from vineyards aged 10 to 35 years rooted in limestone and clay soils. This wine reveals seamless minerality and balanced weight with layers of stone fruits, acacia flowers, and spiced hazelnut butter, showcasing the unique character and finesse of Pouilly-Fuissé terroir. Why You'll Love It This is Pouilly-Fuissé with real elegance—refined, fresh, and beautifully balanced with exceptional ageing potential. J.A. Ferret is one of the most respected producers in the appellation, and this wine demonstrates why through meticulous vineyard management, low yields, and thoughtful winemaking. With 10 months in barrels followed by 8 months in tanks to refine balance and texture, this wine offers the complexity and finesse of premium Burgundy at outstanding value. Vineyard & Production Sourced from vineyards aged 10 to 35 years planted on granitic, marl, and limestone soils in the Mâconnais region. Low yields and attentive cultivation ensure concentrated flavours and balanced structure. Grapes are vinified in a combination of vats and casks according to soil type, then aged 10 months in barrels followed by 8 months in tanks to refine balance and texture. Tasting Notes Fresh and mineral with layered aromas of stone fruits, acacia flowers, and spiced hazelnut butter. Smooth and weighty on the palate with seamless minerality, finishing long, precise, and subtly spicy. An expression that ages gracefully. Perfect Pairings Perfect with creamy fish pies, seafood platters, vegetable quiches, grilled fish, lobster, or creamy pasta dishes. Also excellent with roasted chicken, soft cheeses, or simply as an elegant aperitif. Grape Variety 100% Chardonnay
