2019 Chardonnay Gouttes d`O, Château de Bousval

A biodynamically-farmed, pin-sharp, pristine Chardonnay hides behind the cartoon label and it is absolutely enchanting! Delicate, haunting, packed with vitality and verve and only tipping the scales at 12% alcohol this is a rare beauty and it even manages to hide a whisper of oak in its core, too. This is effortlessly classy winemaking from a very unexpected postcode and so when the stock arrived in the UK last week I had to sing about it.
