Crafted from old-vine Viognier, the 2022 “La Butte d’Or” was aged primarily in large oak casks, with a mix of partially new and seasoned barrels. The nose bursts with Viognier’s hallmark floral bouquet—jasmine, honeysuckle, and lily of the valley—layered with aromas of apricot, yellow peach, pear skin, creamy apple, lemon zest, and a touch of crushed chalk. On the palate, the wine’s acidity steals the show, lending energy and balance to its lush texture and exotic flavors. A core of zesty minerality provides structure, elevating the wine’s heady richness into something both refreshing and profound.
