Viré-Clessé Lupé Cholet 2018
NT$1,090
The vineyard is located in the south part of the Mâconnais, around the villages of Clessé, Laizé, Monbellet and Viré. The soils are lime and clay-rich on varying Jurassic limestone and marl subsoils. The wine is vinified in stainless still vat, and is further aged on lees for 8 to 12 months to add extra mouthfeel and texture to the wine. Light golden in color. Rich and concentrated on the nose with sweet, ripened stone fruits, apricot, nectarine, Bosc pear, candied lemon, white flowers and a touch of un-toasted walnut, wood toast and caramel. Luscious and elegant on the palate, texture is round and creamy with lovely notes of sweet citrus fruits, toast, orange blossom and a hint of wet stone like minerality. Candied lime slice, sweet green pear, wood smoke and toffee on the finish.
