In stock
Audacieux de Laborde Blanc de Pinot Noir 2023, France. This Blanc de Pinot Noir Audacieux de Laborde 2023 is a rare and intriguing wine made entirely from Pinot Noir grapes, but vinified as a white wine. This unique expression is produced in the heart of Burgundy, just outside the Côte de Beaune, by Hervé Kerlann at Château de Laborde. Classified as Vin de France, this wine stands apart from traditional Burgundy classifications while showcasing the region’s renowned terroir. The vines are south-facing, sharing the same clone as the prestigious Pommard 1er Cru Clos des Epenots, ensuring high-quality fruit. The grapes are harvested early to preserve freshness, and gentle Champagne-style pressing is used to extract the free-run juice, which retains a delicate balance of sweetness and acidity. Aged for 8 months – 75% in stainless steel tanks and 25% in new oak barrels – this wine is crisp and vibrant with a creamy texture from malolactic fermentation. On the palate, expect fresh notes of green apple, citrus, and subtle hints of pear, balanced by a bright acidity and a soft, mineral finish. Pair this wine with seafood, roasted poultry, or creamy cheeses. It’s an excellent choice for those seeking something truly distinctive from Burgundy’s rich winemaking heritage..
