Chardonnay
Domaine Charles Audoin Marsannay Clos du Roy Blanc 2017
Drink it now or cellar for up to 15 years. No need to decant but best to open it half an hour before service.
Domaine Charles Audoin is a family-run winery located in Marsannay-la-Côte. Charles Audoin and his wife Marie-Françoise, an oenologist by training, took over the family estate in 1972. They developed it and bought new plots. Since 2000 his son Cyril has been at the helm of the company. In the 14 hectares of the estate, the company owns old vines, with limited yields. The vinifications remain faithful to traditional practices without seeking very advanced extractions: the terroir and the vintage must always be able to express themselves.
The Chardonnay grapes for the Marsannay Clos du Roy Blanc of the Domaine Charles Audoin come from the municipality of Chenove north of the Marsannay appellation, near Dijon. Here the marly soil rich in calcium particularly favorable to Chardonnay allows for the production of full-bodied wines with excellent aging potential.
This wine has a bright yellow color with golden tones. The nose reveals a wide aromatic spectrum, composed of notes of white fruit, especially pear and apricot, citrus peel, and floral scents. The wood is beautifully complemented with light shades of vanilla and nutmeg. In the mouth, it is concentrated and rich, elegant, harmonious and with a good creaminess perfectly balanced by the marked acid backbone. The citrus finish leaves a long note of freshness. Have it with fish or poultry.
