The Domaine Cruchandeau 2022 Hautes Côtes de Nuits Blanc Vieilles Vignes is a true gem from Burgundy, encapsulating the essence of grape varieties that have thrived in the limestone soils of this historic wine region. The "Vieilles Vignes," with their over 30 years of age, impart a rare and inimitable complexity to the wine, making it unique in its category. On the first sip, one is enveloped by an explosive freshness, with notes of citrus, green apple, and white flowers, blending into an extraordinary aromatic bouquet.
Elegance is a hallmark of this wine, thanks in part to the fermentation carried out in wooden barrels, which adds a subtle spiciness and remarkable depth. The minerality comes through on the finish, making it perfect for pairing with fish dishes, shellfish, and fresh cheeses. It also pairs beautifully with a porcini mushroom risotto; this white wine is an ode to Burgundian tradition and its ability to express the terroir in all its nuances. With its 12.5% alcohol, it is a wine to be enjoyed chilled, making every moment special and every table an unforgettable experience.
