Growing Chardonnay grapes on clay and chalk-rich soil and 10 months of élevage in oak delivers a very appealing freshness, minerality and roundness. Its expressive nose exudes aromas of white fruits, white flowers, and dried fruits.
The 2017 Santenay 1er Cru Le Beaurepaire Rouge is utterly charming, bursting with plummy fruit that's complemented by nuances of pencil lead and rich soil. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with melting tannins, succulent acids and an expansive finish.
The 2009 Haut-Brion is deep garnet colored and slightly closed and shy to begin, slowly unfurling to reveal sensuous notions of warm blackberries, plum preserves, mulberries and blackcurrant cordial with touches of star anise, mocha and damp soil.
Saint Amour is bounding with juicy raspberry fruit. It's full of energy with great minerality and silky tannins. Saint Amour has the most diverse geology of all of the Cru Beaujolais. Pirolette is distinct because the vineyards are near the top of the hill, where you have very little top soil and very good drainage.
With its twenty hectares in one single plot in Fronsac, Château La Vieille Cure is one of the benchmark producers in the right bank of Bordeaux. The soil found in this site is heavy on limestone, lending a remarkably fresh quality on the palate.
This is a lovely estate, one of the last remaining properties in the Mérignac gravel area, lying next door to Haut Brion and Pape-Clément. The name Caillou refers to pebbles, reflecting the fact that this was once riverbed, when the river Garonne overflowed millions of years ago.
Des Rocs Pic Saint-Loup Sancto Lupo Domaine 2020 is a blend of 60% Syrah and 40% Grenache from the prestigious Pic Saint-Loup appellation. Crafted with indigenous fermentation in stainless steel and concrete, it showcases a pure expression of the limestone soil, with no wood aging to maintain its freshness.
At the very top of the Côte de Beaune between the villages of Meursault and Puligny, a few vineyard rows abut the forest known as the Bois de Blagny. Conditions are slightly cooler due to the elevation and the proximity to these woods, and the soil is chock-full of blocks of limestone.
Chateau Holden is an exceptional wine that has been in production since the 16th century. Its soil is mostly gravelly, with a mix of clayey limestone and Oligocene marls. On the nose, it has delectable aromas of vanilla, redcurrants, juicy blackberries, violets, and a hint of Madagascar pepper.
