Description
Bourgogne Blanc, Clos de Loyse, Chateau des Jacques (Louis Jadot), Burgundy, France, 2022
Grape: 100% Chardonnay from a 9ha walled vineyard within the Chenas (Cru Beaujolais) appellation. As the wine is white, it can only be labelled as "Bourgogne Blanc".
Barrel fermented and barrel aged chardonnay which is toasty and creamy but smooth and poised at the same time.
The Bourgogne "Clos de Loyse" is vinified for one half in stainless steel tanks and for 50%, like its great northern cousins, in oak barrels. The wine is put in oak burgundy barrels right in the middle of its alcoholic fermentation to remain protected from oxidation.
During ageing the wine will remain protected from oxidation by a few lees stirrings. The blending and bottling will take place after 8 to 9 months, at the end of spring.
Bourgogne Clos de Loyse has a fruity aroma with apple, apricot and citrus notes, a mellow but structured texture and hints of spice, concluding with a lemony citrus finish.
It will pair well with poultry, pasta with mushroom and cream, roasted goose, white fish, sea-food and most cheeses such as goat cheese, brie or comté.
