Tasting notes
The 2020 Bourgogne Blanc has a fresh, slightly candied bouquet with orange blossom and discrete nectarine aromas. The palate is balanced with a pithy opening, slightly lower in acidity than other vintages with a light spiciness towards the finish. Fine.

Opening in the glass with notes of crisp orchard fruit, white flowers and bread dough, the 2020 Bourgogne Blanc is medium-bodied, with a satiny attack that leads into a bright, racy mid-palate and a saline finish. There's good substance here, in its middle-weight format, and it should reward some bottle age.
