BEAT THE HEAT SPRING WHITE CASE
STOCK YOUR CELLAR FOR SPRING DRINKING
We’re not into oaky Chardonnay. We like our whites to be fresh, lively and complex, showing off the diversity of Burgundian minerality. You can taste the ‘terroir’ in Elden Selections White Burgundy, from Chablis, through the Cote de Beaune and onward to the south.
Pure Chardonnay!
We will send you 2 bottles of each WHITE with Ground Shipping included:
Domaine Borgeot Bourgogne Blanc 2022
This is a real (secret) gem, the vines actually sit within the commune of Puligny-Montrachet and this is evident in the floral and citrus fruit bouquet, surprisingly dense and mineral in the attack. It does not possess all the intensity of a village or 1er cru but no doubt is a perfect example of how, when you understand the sometimes complex Burgundy wine laws, great quality can work in our favour, drinking perfectly now.
Domaine Gilles Bouton Bourgogne Blanc 2022
Beautiful example of how good regional classified wines can be. The caveat is that the producer must be top quality, small production. Complex citrus on the attack, with good concentration, saline minerality merges with some white pepper into the finish.
Julien Cruchandeau Aligote 'Le Village' 2022
From 50 year old vines in the hills above Nuits St Georges, this Aligote is fresh and spicy with green apple acidity. Bright, crisp almost crunchy fruit and a deep, floral lingering finish carried out long by the limestone minerality.
Jean-Jacques Girard Bourgogne Blanc 2021
A baby Savigny white. Its youthful vivacity tempered with a judicious use of oak yields a balance and a maturity beyond its years. That's the hand of the winemaker working with terroir that he was born to.
Domaine Oudin Chablis 2022
Classic sweet river rock minerality and floral freshness, this is a meticulous perfectionists’ Chablis ‘tout-court’ (as the locals call the ‘village’ appellation). This wine is at its peak now and will remain there for another 3-4 years. A lovely introduction to the Domaine Oudin style
Domaine Michel Rebourgeon Bourgogne Blanc 2021
From a tiny plot, less than half an acre. For those of you who know the area, it’s near the roundabout between Pommard and Beaune. Freshness, green apple and floral. Round, good depth and density.
