Champs Poids, 2021

For the white Burgundy drinker: rich, creamy Chardonnay from the Jura that stays fresh thanks to a salty, chalky edge.

Old-vine Chardonnay from Anne and Jean-Francois Ganevat, a family that has farmed in the southern Jura since 1650. It spends years in old barrels with nothing added. That time shows as citrus zest and pear, a little butter, honey and warm brioche. It is broad and creamy, kept bright by fresh acidity and a salty, chalky finish. Frost wiped out most of the 2021 crop, so very little was made.
