| Qty=3Size=750 ml, ST[96]"The 2019 Chateau-Grillet is the first vintage under the helm of Jaeok Chu Cramette. Dazzling and flamboyant, its pungent perfume is reminiscent of apricot and peach compote mingling with layers of honey. Ripe guava, lychee, pineapple and mango add a distinctively tropical twist. Stylistically, the 2019 Chateau-Grillet couldn t be more different from the less flashy and more nuanced 2020, 2021 and 2022 renditions. The main reason circles back not only to the amount of heat and sunlight during the growing season, but also to the comparatively late harvest between the 9th and 14th of September. Viscously textured, powerful and concentrated, the 2019 Chateau-Grillet closes with a touch of heat on the eccentric finale. 4,800 bottles produced." - Nicolas Greinacher, Vinous (October 2023) |
