2020 Bourgogne Chardonnay, Domaine Agnès Paquet

Agnès has been able to add juice from the grapes of a vineyard in Volnay to what she produces from 40-year-old vines on limestone soils in the Hautes Côtes de Beaune. Pale lemon in colour, with appetising Chardonnay liveliness on the nose, this starts medium bodied, then shows attractive fruit concentration, with refreshing finish, giving superb value for youthful enjoyment (for drinking 2022-2023+).
