2020 Domaine Nicolas En Chevrot Saint-Romain Blanc

The 2020 Domaine Nicolas En Chevrot Saint-Romain Blanc is a 100% Chardonnay. In the glass, this Saint-Romain (part of Cote du Beaune) has a light straw yellow color with green reflections. On the nose, white flowers mingle with peach and mirabelles. The complexity comes from the oak barrels that give almost caramel notes of vanilla. The wine has intense aromas and a balanced roundness with mineral structure. Highly recommend. The wines are slightly more accessible than the brothers and sisters from the rest of Burgundy. Domaine Nicolas works sustainably and does not use pesticides or other chemicals. It is recommended to open the bottle an hour in advance.

The vineyards are located on a clay-limestone soil. After fermentation, the wine matures for 10 to 12 months in wooden barriques, 25% of which are new. The En Chevrot Saint-Romain Blanc goes well with delicate fish dishes, white meat and poultry, Bleu de Bresse, goat cheese and Gruyère.
