BOUTINOT, GENETIE ILLUMINÉ CHARDONNAY 2018 75 CL
629,000 LBP
Classic southern Burgundy Chardonnay; a delicious combination of ripe fruit with a gentle citrus note and a creaminess enhanced by just a tiny kiss of oak.
It is from a 12 hectare plot in the village of Bussières, to the south of the Mâconnais region, with an average vine age of about 40 years. The soil is classic argilo-calcaire that suits Chardonnay so well and that lends elegance and finesse to the final wines. 10% of the wine is barrel aged to give a more textural, slightly creamy element.
