Domaine Olivier Merlin Bourgogne Chardonnay (2023)

Bright and precise, this 2023 Bourgogne Chardonnay exudes a vibrant freshness that reflects its clay-limestone terroir in La Roche-Vineuse and Chaintré. On the nose, delicate citrus and white orchard fruits mingle with subtle floral and mineral hints, offering a refined yet approachable expression. The palate is crisp and lively, showing layers of green apple, lemon zest, and a whisper of brioche, all supported by a chalky, tension-filled minerality.

The wine’s medium body and balanced acidity make it exceptionally versatile at the table, while its purity and finesse reveal the care in the vineyard and during vinification. Fermented and aged in stainless steel with no fining and light filtration, it retains the vibrant character and authenticity of the fruit. This is a Bourgogne Chardonnay of subtle elegance, perfect for both everyday enjoyment and more celebratory occasions.
