B389 DOMAINE DE CHASSORNEY (AURELIEN VERDET) SAINT ROMAIN BLANC COMBE BAZIN 2023 750ml

The rich, fruit-filled juice intertwines with acidity and minerals. The unique soil of this area is a blend of limestone and marl, including patches of clay. Chardonnay here is characterized mainly by citrus fruits, including lemons, but especially in 2023, the fruit is well ripened, showing sweetness and volume in the flesh rather than a crispy freshness at this point. Over time, as the wine takes on a yellow hue, its contours will become clearer. The great 2023 vintage, along with the latent energy of the Vieilles Vignes on the upper slope, averaging 60 years old (with some over 90 years), will fully demonstrate their true qualities.
