Patrick Piuze, Bourgogne Tonnerre 'Les Boutots' 2021
Place: Burgundy, France
Grape: Chardonnay
Vibe: Classic, textural
Fruit here from a single site in Vaulichères to the east of Chablis. Piuze has a bit of a nose for finding good fruit, and that's on full display here. Partial barrel ferment shows, in a good way, rounding out what can otherwise be pretty sharp edges. I really, really liked this, but what do I know. ABV: 12%
