2021 Vincent Girardin Rully Premier Cru Grésigny France

GW says: This wine is what happens when precise winemaking meets a Premier Cru.  Grown on limestone soils and made with Girardin’s usual flair for minimal intervention, this bottle is all finesse and none of the flash—think lemon curd in a cashmere coat. It delivers zesty structure, a creamy nod, and just enough oak to keep things interesting.

Grapes: 100% Chardonnay

Appearance: Pale gold with a shimmer like freshly polished glassware.

Aroma: Citrus peel, white blossom, wet stone, and a whisper of hazelnut.

Palate: Zingy yet smooth, with lemon zest, subtle toast, and mineral poise.
