Flavor profile
White flowers, brioche and candied lemon; an ample palate with freshness, followed by floral and gingerbread-like notes.
Cellaring & drinking window
This structured white Burgundy can develop beyond its youthful fruit, but a drinking window matched to this 750 mL bottle has not been verified. Confirm its storage history before planning extended cellaring. Keep unopened in darkness at a steady temperature around 55°F (13°C), away from vibration; lay natural-cork bottles on their side.
Pairing & serving
Pair with roast chicken, lobster or mushrooms in a cream sauce. Serve chilled, around 46–54°F (8–12°C). Let an ice-cold pour warm slightly in the glass. Routine decanting is unnecessary.
After opening & when to enjoy
Reseal and refrigerate upright. Aim to enjoy within about 3–4 days for best flavor; freshness varies by bottle.
