2020 Simon Bize Les Champlains Blanc, Burgundy, France
Regular price $44.00
Unit price per
100% Chardonnay
Simon Bize is one of the most respected and smallest wineries in all of Burgundy. The Bourgogne Blanc is a blend of a few of their small Chardonnay vineyard sites. They have the poise and freshness that one expects from serious white Burgundy, while still showing the fruit and richness that characterizes the vintage. "Champlains" is a Bourgogne that performs at a high level, from a parcel that Patrick Bize planted himself. It includes about five percent of Pinot Beurrot (known as Pinot Blanc elsewhere) and has a beautifully ripe nose full of white peach and lilies. There is good weight on the palate and more of that stone fruit character, wrapped up in a lovely sea shell-like finish.
