Description
One of the most prestigious white wines in Burgundy, the 2021 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru from Domaine de la Vougeraie is the epitome of elegance and purity. Coming from one of the finest terroirs in the Côte de Beaune, this wine showcases extraordinary mineral tension, precision, and depth, making it a true benchmark for Chardonnay at its peak expression.
Blend
100% Chardonnay, vinified and aged with meticulous care in French oak barrels, with a delicate use of new oak to preserve its freshness and terroir-driven characteristics.
Tasting Notes
• Appearance: Bright pale gold with luminous highlights.
• Nose: A refined and layered bouquet of white flowers (acacia, hawthorn), citrus zest, crushed stones, and subtle toasted brioche notes. Hints of almond and hazelnut emerge with aeration.
• Palate: Strikingly pure and energetic, with an intense mineral backbone. The mid-palate reveals a harmonious blend of citrus, green apple, and white peach, evolving towards complex nuances of honey and delicate spice. The long, saline finish leaves an impression of finesse and grandeur.
Aging Potential
A wine built for the long haul—while it can be enjoyed in its youth for its vibrancy and precision, it will reach its full potential in 10 to 20 years, unveiling even greater complexity and texture.
Food Pairings
A perfect pairing for lobster with butter sauce, seared turbot, truffle-infused poultry, or a refined aged Comté, all of which complement its richness and mineral tension.
