Soufrandière: Pouilly-Vinzelles Climat "Les Quarts" cuvée zen 2020
Burgundy - Pouilly-Vinzelles - White Wine -Marked by a great heterogeneity, the 2020 vintage reflects the diversity of the Burgundy vineyard. The Chardonnays in Pouilly-Vinzelles are real nuggets; expressive, complex and with great freshness. However, the harvest has not been easy for the winegrowers, who have suffered from numerous climatic hazards (drought being the first problem). Despite this historical precocity and its complexity for the actors of the sector; 2020 is a beautiful vintage for the Burgundian white wines.
The Pouilly-Vinzelles climat "Les Quarts" cuvée Zen 2020 is one of the great plot-based cuvées of the Domaine de la Soufrandière. A parcel of 2ha in total, whose vines are between 48 and 80 years old and on a terroir considered by many as the largest in Pouilly-Vinzelles. Located on a hillside ideally exposed to the South-East, the oldest Chardonnay vines of the vineyard evolve on a living clay-limestone soil (Bajocian rich in siliceous crystals) and give birth to a great wine for aging.
The "Zen cuvée" of the Domaine de la Soufrandière designates wines that have been vinified without sulphur; the only addition being 20mg/L during bottling to stabilize the wines. This concentration is well below the standards for AB (organic) and Demeter (biodynamic) certification.
Tasting comments:
The color: bright golden with light green reflections
The nose: on the fruit (green apple), with candied and greedy notes (quince)
The palate: frank attack, the mouth is refined, complex and rich, the finish is long and perfectly balanced
The advice of 12Bouteilles:
A great Burgundy wine, to be kept for another 5 to 10 years and served around 12°C with a board of cold meats, a dish in sauce, white meat, a noble fish or a fruity dessert.
