The first time we have had the white wine from Domaine Felettig! 100% Chardonnay from a plot above Ladoix-Serigny (Corton). The vineyard is exposed east.
Now this smells serious! Wonderful nose of orchard fruits with a little complexing sulphide. The palate displays crisp fresh, stonefruit with a little perfumed oak. Just the right weight with intensity but also lightness due to the fine acidity. The finish is long and intense. This is a serious wine at this level and would easily cellar 5+ years.
From 30-year-old vines, Felettig's 2018 Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Blanc offers up aromas of pear, peach, waxy citrus rind and fresh pastry. Medium to full-bodied, layered and textural, with bright underlying acids, it concludes with a flavorful finish. This has turned out very well.
