This is the white Burgundy from Domaine Serene’s new Burgundy holdings, and it’s terrific.
The winery says:
Crafted by the venerable Château de la Crée estate, Les Tourelles de la Crée offers clean, pure expressions of Premier Cru Burgundian terroir. Our Montagny Premier Cru comes from 100% Chardonnay fruit grown in the limestone-rich soils that make Montagny the most highly regarded region for Chardonnay in Burgundy’s Côte Chalonnaise.
The 2018 Les Tourelles de la Crée, Montagny Premier Cru Chardonnay is fresh and fruit driven with floral hints of honey suckle, and delicate expressions of apple, pear, and pure stone fruit tendencies. A concentration of acidity and minerality coats the palate with a lovely weight and viscosity, as the flavors and sea salt-driven aspect linger in the mouth for a long persistent finish.
