2020 Mâcon-Vinzelles, Clos de Grand-Père, La Soufrandière, Bret Brothers, Burgundy

Description

This charming wine harks from a single hectare of vines the Bret brothers’ grandfather planted. He found a small outcrop of hard limestone at the bottom of the Pouilly-Vinzelles slope, right in the middle of the village. The nose boasts concentrated yellow orchard fruit and ripe citrus, while a little floral character adds elegance. There is a delightfully chalky texture, while the mouthfeel is round and soft. The acidity perfectly balances the flavours, making this wine superbly fresh. This is a perfect example of the gorgeous 2020 vintage.

Critics reviews

Allen Meadows 88-90/100

From a .99 ha holding

A mild touch of reduction shaves the top notes and blurs the nuance of the ripe white orchard fruit-scented nose. The racy and almost painfully intense middle-weight flavours are not nearly as dense, but there is good minerality on the refreshing and chiselled finish that reflects a touch of bitter citrus zest.

Drink from 2024 onward
