2024 Mary Taylor Beaujolais Blanc Marine Descombe, Burgundy, France

This Beaujolais Blanc comes from a plot located in the village of Porte des Pierres Dorées. The clay-limestone soil of this southern part of Beaujolais is the ideal terroir for Chardonnay. Sliced apples, almonds and apricots with fresh acidity and tasty stone-fruit notes. Hand harvesting, biodiversity in the vineyards with rows of forest lining the plots, direct pressing, natural yeasts and ageing partly in concrete eggs leads to a wine a beautiful texture.
