Barton & Guestier Patriarche Pere & Fils Chardonnay Brut NV, France
A lovely fruit and lees lifted bouquet with aromas of brioche and oatmeal biscuit then apple and citrus fruits. Dry, crisp, saline and fruit with flavours of white fleshed tree and stone fruits, some pith-like citrus fruit, a touch of green mandarin and lees complexities. A finely textured mousse, plenty of acidity and a balanced even finish. Best drinking from day of purchase through 2029.
