"La Chatenlaine" Vezelay 2022 | La Soeur Cadette

La Soeur Cadette's Vézelay La Châtelaine is a wine with delicious fruitiness and bright minerality. Perfectly balanced between minerality and impressive substance. A gem and a favorite!

Very pretty pale color with golden highlights for this Vézelay La Châtelaine from La Soeur Cadette. A ripe, very aromatic nose between white fruits and citrus fruits (candied lemon). A hint of acacia. The attack is lively, even incisive, with bright fruit, followed by a ripe and salivating heart. Perfectly balanced between minerality and impressive substance. The long, slightly saline finish brings additional elegance.
