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

 

The Ultimate Expression of Chardonnay from the Côte de Nuits

The Domaine Bruno Clair Morey-Saint-Denis ‘En La Rue de Vergy’ Blanc is a rare and sought-after jewel of Burgundy. Sourced from a unique, high-altitude plot situated just above the Grand Cru Bonnes-Mares, this White Côte de Nuits is an intense expression of Chardonnay, defined by its steely acidity and profound minerality due to the shallow, rocky limestone soil.

Tasting Profile

• Color: Pale yellow-gold, bright and clear.
• Nose: Complex and racy, opening with intense notes of lemon verbena, white grapefruit, and crushed seashells, underpinned by subtle hints of vanilla and toasted almond from the 18-month barrel aging.
• Palate: Remarkably pure and precise on the entry, the palate showcases vibrant tension and a silky texture. The body is elegant, leading to a long, graceful finish dominated by salinity and mineral nuances. This wine is built for the cellar.

Pairing & Service

This luxury white wine demands elevated cuisine. Pair it with rich, creamy dishes or delicate shellfish. Serve chilled, but not ice-cold (54-57°F), to allow its complexity to unfold.
