Calmel & Joseph - IGP Pays d'Oc Villa Blanche Chardonnay 2024
15/20
Jancis Robinson
Médaille d'Or
Chardonnay du Monde
"A great success!
This Chardonnay, with its brilliant yellow color and golden highlights, has an assertive, elegant character. The palate is full-bodied and unctuous, with good length. A perfectly balanced vintage to accompany asparagus risotto or sea bream en papillote.

About the wine:
Fairly deep gold. Sweet, woody nose. Slightly strange taste - as if a few drops of butterscotch flavoring had been added!
