2019 Mercurey Blanc Les Croichots

Aromas of crisp orchard fruit, white peach, blanched almonds and white flowers introduce the 2019 Mercurey 1er Cru Les Croichots Blanc, a medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated wine that's textural but chiseled, with racy acids and a saline finish. Catching the morning sun and defined by chalky soils, it's one of the more precocious whites in Lorenzon's cellar.
