Macon Uchizy, Meurgey-Croses 2023
"Bright floral aromatics lead to a clean, crisp palate. Grapefruit and lime pith dominate, supported by mineral undertones and a long, refreshing finish. Fermented entirely in stainless steel for clarity and precision." Our note Pierre Meurgey is a rising star in Burgundy, blending tradition with modern techniques to craft precise and terroir-driven wines. His focus is on showcasing the nuanced characteristics of each appellation, from the Mâconnais to the Côte de Beaune. The 2023 vintage was particularly noteworthy, beginning with uncertainty due to a sudden heatwave in early September. Thanks to early harvesting, Pierre achieved balanced ripeness and avoided overripeness, producing wines with finesse, vibrant fruit, and excellent ageing potential. Both reds and whites are approachable young yet structured.
Springfield Estate Life from Stone Sauvignon Blanc 2024
"Life from Stone" is a wine that is deeply connected to its unique terroir, with the rocky, quartz-rich soils playing a significant role in shaping its character. The challenging conditions of the vineyard, including the need for dynamite to plant vines, highlight the immense effort required to cultivate grapes in such harsh, mineral-laden soils. These difficult growing conditions likely contribute to the wine's concentrated flavours, powerful structure, and distinctive flinty, mineral qualities. The wine offers versatility for both immediate enjoyment and aging potential for a few more years, making it a noteworthy expression of its origin.
