Description
A very good White Burgundy that rivals many whites that are starrier in name and price tag. From a top Burgundy producer, Joseph Faiveley. Comprising of 100% Chardonnay grapes picked from several of Faiveley’s vineyards, as well as their partner estates throughout Burgundy, it is excellent value for money and a great representation of the Burgundy region
TASTING NOTE: Brilliant yellow colour. On the nose: notes of white flowers including jasmine and orange blossom, with stone fruits such as peach and apricot, plus a touch of oatmeal and hazelnut, this is a bold, expressive wine. On the palate: well-balanced with medium-full body and full of flavours of lemon, peach and honeysuckle, along with slightly richer buttery notes, and an elegant, fresh long finish. 13.5% alcohol.
FOOD PAIRING, STORING AND SERVICE: We think this is a superb value introduction to Burgundian Chardonnay and would recommend trying it alongside a poultry dish, or white fish dishes. Drink now or till end of 2027.
