Pleasantly meaty

Graceful wines showing aromatic purity are the hallmark of this estate and many wine critics have earmarked Domaine Geantet-Pansiot as a producer to follow closely in the future

Garagiste Merricks Chardonnay 2025 Size::1 Bottle with old-vine depth and balanceThe Merricks Chardonnay, from 29 year old vines on soils of grey loams and red ferrosols on south and southeast facing slopes, was harvested and sorted by hand before being pressed as bunches. Fermentation was spontaneous with high levels of solids in 500 litre Franois Frres puncheons. A small portion went through natural malolactic fermentation, and the wine rested in large format barrels on full gross lees for 10 months before bottling. Barney seeks
