Drouhin Laforet Bourgogne Chardonnay 2022

They are yours simply by joining the Champagne Club

where the Apennines loosen into olive groves and Adriatic breezes

Then comes the texture: those classic Barolo tannins

And that rule comes with a simple corollary – the more specific the place

the artisan farmer with dirty hands and muddy boots

including Italian

tobacco and licorice

Easy to understand

as full-bodied tannins and oak contrast it all

Planted in the late 1970s on a steep

Which is not to say that its “lightness” reflects any lack of flavor

Special Selection is the only wine in the world honored twice as Wine Spectator magazine’s 'Wine of the Year
