Domaine Overnoy-Crinquand Arbois-Pupillin Chardonnay 'La Bidode' 2019
$31.00 USD
Arbois-Pupillin Chardonnay La Bidode is fermented in wood where the malolactic fermenatation also occurs; the “élevage” is in “demi-muid” (500 – 600 liter barrels); the wine spends a minimum of two years in barrel before being bottled; there is a virtually no SO2 used during the aging process; although the wine is not purposely aged “sous voile”, it is never topped up during its time before bottling and there is only a single racking during the “élevage”. The wine displays excellent, firm acidity, is rather full in the mouth, quite honeyed in its nose and flavor, fine with a persistent, mineral-dominated finish.
