Description

The 2022 L&C Poitout Bourgogne Tonnerre Chardonnay is a distinctive white Burgundy from Tonnerre, close to Chablis, made from 100% Chardonnay. The nose is layered with ripe pear, nectarine and green apple alongside candied lemon, quince and almond, with wet slate, oyster shell and subtle smoky limestone notes adding mineral complexity.

On the palate, it is supple and fruit-driven with pear, green apple and citrus balanced by fresh acidity. Dried honey brings a little richness, while the region’s marl and limestone soils are reflected in a pronounced saline, stony character. The finish is dry, energetic and persistent, with lemon freshness and an appealing iodine-like mineral edge.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Chardonnay drinkers who enjoy mineral-driven white Burgundy with fresh acidity and a little more generosity than classic Chablis. Enjoy now or over the next few years and pair with oysters, scallops, grilled fish, roast chicken, creamy seafood dishes or soft cheeses.

About the region

Burgundy · Chablis

Burgundy, or Bourgogne, runs north to south through eastern France, from Chablis through the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune to the Mâconnais. Almost everything here is Pinot Noir or Chardonnay, grown on small parcels called climats that have been mapped for centuries and ranked from regional and village wines up to Premier Cru and Grand Cru. The result is wine of unusual precision: the same grape, a few hundred metres apart, tasting unmistakably different.
