The thin layer of topsoil in the Clos des Barraults is not much deeper than in En Sazenay, as it is only twenty centimeters in depth before reaching the limestone. The vineyard has a beautiful southeasterly exposition and has delivered a truly stunning white wine in 2023. The wine’s aromatic constellation is bright and complex, delivering a beautiful blend of pear, fresh lime, a hint of raw almond, a gorgeous base of limestone minerality, white lilies, vanillin oak and a topnote of lime zest. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and revels in its beautiful core of pure fruit, layered over a superb foundation of limestone, with great focus and nascent complexity, bright acids and impeccable balance on the long, complex and very pure finish. This too will deserve a bit of time in the cellar to fully unfold. (Drink between 2028-2050)
