Clos des Rocs “Les Quatre Saisons” Pouilly-Loché 2015
Burgundy chardonnay cellared to a deep and matured expression. Dense gold robe belies the rich ripe notes within. A very rich nose of baked apple, honey, apricot, and toasty pastry dough. The palette follows bouquet and flows into ripe Bosc pear and cantaloupe. Finishes with a lip-smacking crystalline mineral vibration that lingers on the palate, setting a slow and contemplative pace.
This is could function as your oyster companion Burgundy but there’s also a riper broader quality to it that could pair with crab-stuffed haddock, truffled brie, fried chicken, or even pork belly, depending on the garnishes. Beautiful stuff, showing maturity now, which one could even cellar a few more years.
Practicing organic, 100% chardonnay, Pouilly-Loché, Burgundy, France.
