Alain Geoffroy Chablis Cuvee Vieilles Vignes 2020
Pale golden yellow in colour with slight greenish glints. Bright, luminous and limpid.
The nose shows instantly both maturity and freshness in a festival of flowers and fruit. The floral notes of menthol, acacias and citronella mingle with grapefruit, butterscotch and freshly baked bunsā¦
Taste is powerful with pretty, harmonious mellowness, perfectly supported by its frank, yet unaggressive liveliness. The long finish prolongs the pleasure with a pronounced mineral presence enhanced by a delicate hint of wood.
