2009 Domaine Tripoz Macon-Loche
100% Chardonnay from the village of Loche, in the Macon region of Burgundy. It’s a vastly different style of Chardonnay than most people are used to, especially if they have been drinking a lot of riper California Chardonnays. Made biodynamically by Celine and Laurent Tripoz, from old vines in clay and limestone soils. Done entirely in stainless steel to preserve as much minerality and acidity as possible. A beautifully clean Chardonnay, with sharp green apple, herb (thyme, fennel, fresh grass) and salty notes. Great for lighter fish and poultry dishes, as well as cheese and salads. A drinker’s wine.
