A classically French and mineral-forward white wine, 2020 Bruno Lafon Chardonnay has an award-winning pedigree. Shining bright yellow-green in the glass, it opens with a layered bouquet showing stone fruits and white flowers with hints of ginger and grass. The palate reveals juicy nectarine, peach, and citrus notes with fresh acidity that leaves a lasting finish with a touch of zing. Minerality is evident throughout, representing the “terroir effect” from grapes grown in clay and limestone soils. From Languedoc vineyards in the South of France, this wine is the product of ideal growing conditions. Nestled between the Pyrenees and the Black Mountains, the region has a Mediterranean climate in which vines are nourished by warm sunshine and sea breezes. Bruno Lafon Chardonnay is as delicious on its own as it is paired to a variety of dishes. Uncork this when the menu calls for fresh shellfish, grilled chicken, roasted pork loin, or vibrant salads.
