Grande Réserve Chardonnay - Domaine Paul Mas

The powerful Grande Réserve Chardonnay from Domaine Paul Mas glides into the glass with a dense golden yellow color. To the nose, this Domaine Paul Mas white wine reveals all manner of lavender, pink grapefruit, pomelo, grapefruits and violets. As if that wasn't already impressive, toasted almond, walnut and brittle join in due to the aging in large wooden barrels.

This wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor. It was bottled with only 1.5 grams of residual sugar. This is a real quality wine, which clearly stands out from simpler qualities and so this Frenchman naturally enchants with the finest balance despite all dryness. Taste does not necessarily need sugar. This dense and silky white wine presents itself on the palate full of pressure and facets. The fruit acid of the Grande Réserve Chardonnay is wonderfully rounded and makes this wine wonderfully smooth. The final of this white wine from the Languedoc wine-growing region is convincing with good reverberation.
