Domaine Bruno Clair En la Rue de Vergy – Morey-Saint-Denis – White – 2022:

 

A Collector’s White Burgundy: Purity and Precision from Morey-Saint-Denis

The Domaine Bruno Clair Morey-Saint-Denis ‘En La Rue de Vergy’ Blanc is a phenomenal example of Chardonnay from the highly exclusive Côte de Nuits. This wine is grown on a unique, rocky, high-slope vineyard just above the Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru, resulting in a wine of exceptional purity, tension, and mineral focus. It is a testament to the fact that not all great Burgundy white wine comes from the Côte de Beaune.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Bright, pale gold.
• Aroma: Highly aromatic with zesty lemon, orange pith, and a distinct ‘crushed seashell’ minerality. Subtle notes of new oak (15%) add complexity, hinting at honey and spice.
• Taste: The palate is elegant, fine-boned, and incredibly fresh, counterbalancing a lush texture with lip-smacking acidity. It offers a graceful, long finish with persistent citrus and chalky minerality.

Food Pairing & Serving Suggestions

An ideal match for rich seafood dishes or classic British fare with a creamy element. For best results, allow a few years of bottle age. Serve at cellar temperature (around 13°C).
