Domaine Montrose Chardonnay 2022
Languedoc, Sud de France, FranceDomaine Montrose was founded by the Coste family in 1701 in Pézenas, in Languedoc, and today Bernard and Olivier Coste oversee the estate. This chardonnay is rooted in IGP Côtes de Thongue's white chalky clay and dark volcanic pebbles. Each plot was fermented and vinified separately, and then blended. After a short skin contact, this was fermented and aged in stainless to preserve the fresh fruit. Fragrant white blossoms, crisp pear, lemon curd is laced with a buzzy stony mineral underlay which lingers on the finish. Fresh and friendly, and ready for cracking into now.Tasted: 09 May 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $21.00 | 750ml | consignment |
