🏰 The 2020 La Vougeraie Vougeot 1er Cru Clos Blanc de Vougeot Monopole is a 【magical and highly anticipated release】, rated 98 points by California Wine Advisors and 95 by Jasper Morris. This Chardonnay, described as a 'diamond set in the centre of rubies,' offers a refined bouquet with notes of fresh apple and pears, leading to an excellent taffeta texture and great length. Expect smooth and charming flavors of coffee, toffee, spice, and citrus, with a complex and delicate, almost creamy texture. The palate is crisp, clean, and pure with fruit flavors, culminating in a long and tangy finish, also revealing aromas of buttered popcorn, lemon creme brulee, biscuits, and Honeycrisp apple. 🍴 This exquisite white Burgundy pairs beautifully with roasted poultry, rich fish dishes, creamy sauces, or soft, delicate cheeses. For an elegant Asian pairing, consider steamed scallops with vermicelli and garlic or a delicate chicken and coconut curry. 🥂 A prized bottling for collectors, ideal for immediate enjoyment with a 30-minute decant or for cellaring over the next ten years.
