The 2018 Chablis Vaudésir Grand Cru is a gorgeous, radiant wine that captures the essence of this warm, early ripening site. Sweet and racy with striking inner perfume, the 2018 has so much to offer. Passion fruit, mint, citrus and exotic floral notes are beautifully woven together in this super-expressive, inviting wine. Strong mineral character graces the exquisite finish.د.إ1,770.00 -
Immerse yourself in an exquisite experience with the Xavier Monnot Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru En Remilly 2022. Crafted by the esteemed Burgundian vintner, Xavier Monnot, this absolute gem hails from the prestigious Chassagne-Montrachet region. The vineyard is acclaimed for its meticulousness, from vine management right through to the final stages of vinification. Grapes selected for this refined expression are from 50-year-old vines, handpicked, then meticulously fermented and matured in French oak barrels. This meticulous process imparts luscious layers of depth to the wine.
The Xavier Monnot Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru En Remilly 2022 truly embodies the typical Burgundy white finesse, boasting a radiant golden hue with a heady bouquet of blossoming orchard fruits, laced with delicate mineral notes. On the palate, you’ll be delighted with a vivacious acidity, layered complex flavours of citrus fruits, almond, and a distinctive mineral undertone.

A relatively new addition to the formidable Clerget portfolio, this predictably over-achieving Bourgogne Chardonnay is sourced from vines acquired as recently as 2022 with their purchase from Domaine Régis Rossignol. Planted right alongside Clerget’s Aligoté vines, therefore on terroir Thibaut already knows intimately, this cuvée encapsulates the signature of white Côte de Beaune in 2023. Richly coloured with golden flecks, the aromas speak to Chardonnay picked at perfect ripeness. Fresh but generous, notions of stone fruits, seashell and crunchy acidity give way to a surprisingly taught structure that will unwind further with a touch of bottle age. Extremely good value given the talent on display from Clerget, this hard-to-find Chardonnay is a great addition in 2023.د.إ736.00 -

The 2017 Volnay En Carelle Sous La Chapelle 1er Cru has a slightly disjointed bouquet that requires only a couple of minutes to gain focus and delineation, though the aromatics lack the vibrancy and purity of the succeeding vintage. The palate is medium-bodied with pretty red cherry and red plum fruit, coming across a little conservative toward the finish, but boy, does this meliorate with aeration! After a couple of hours it suddenly goes up through the gears, developing more precision and harmony than it had immediately after opening. My score reflects this Volnay in full flight.د.إ1,410.00 -
