Tasting notes
The 2017 Beaune 1er Cru Clos Saint-Landry Blanc offers up an inviting bouquet of fresh pear, yellow orchard fruit, drawn butter and freshly cut herbs. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and enveloping, with a fleshy core of succulent fruit and a generous, open-knit but nicely delineated profile.

The 2017 Beaune Clos Saint-Landry 1er Cru is a two-hectare monopole that has been planted with Chardonnay since the 13th century. It has a lightly honeyed bouquet of acacia and brioche . The energetic palate is well balanced, with a fine bead of acidity and a chalky finish that exhibits just the right amount of salinity.
This has a wealth of peach and gently nutty notes with a smooth array of fresh bread and hazelnut biscuits on the palate. Good freshness here with yellow peach to close. Drink now.
