Louis Latour Ardèche Chardonnay 2018
FranceMaison Louis Latour has been growing chardonnay and making wine in Ardebche since 1979. Over the decades, the warmer climate and clay-limestone soils have come together to yield an impressive inexpensive French chardonnay. Chardonnay d'Ardèche is aged on lees in stainless vats for ten months. 2018 is delicious, from its fresh green apple nose to its riper red apple fruit flavours sprinkled with hazelnuts, honey, and a dusting of lees. It is the perfect introduction to white Burgundy and a style that would be widely welcomed in the New World. If you love simple seafood dishes, this is the wine for you, back up the truck.Tasted: 22 February 2021Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $18.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
