Couvent des Jacobins Bourgogne Chardonnay AOC - Louis Jadot

The elegant Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay Couvent des Jacobins from Louis Jadot shines into the glass with a bright golden yellow. After the first swirl, one can perceive a perfect balance in this white wine, as it neither appears watery nor syrupy or liqueur-like on the glass walls. In the glass, this white wine from Louis Jadot presents aromas of gooseberries, apricots, nashi pear, peaches, and limes, complemented by cigar box, toasted barrique, and oak. This French wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor profile. It was bottled with only 1.9 grams of residual sugar. As one would naturally expect from a wine in this price range, this Frenchman enchants, despite all its dryness, with the finest balance. Excellent flavor does not necessarily require sugar. Thanks to its distinctive fruit acidity, Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay Couvent des Jacobins presents itself on the palate as wonderfully fresh and lively. On the finish, this youthful white wine from the Burgundy wine-growing region finally impresses with a lovely length. Once again, hints of grapefruit and nashi pear appear.
