earth and discreet sauvage nuances

salivating finish

This is a stunningly good Chevy built to reward extended keeping yet there is enough mid-palate sap to permit mid-term approachability

Harmonious notes of blackcurrant and woodland undergrowth encounter tones of gingerbread and orange peel

it's seamless and exquisitely balanced

Paul Prieur et Fils, Sancerre La Pitaude 2023 750ML giftbox earth and discreet sauvage nuancesThe 2022 vintage marks the estates first officially certified organic release. The 2023 La Pitaude hails from a steep vineyard affected by fanleaf, which led to tiny berries and just 15 hl ha. It is intense and almost spicy, with savory and ripe cooked lemon notes, with a touch of bitterness from the small berries. Theres a good fierceness here and a serious, firm style. The 2023 is distinctive and idiosyncratic.
