Sometimes, the beauty of a wine lies in its simplicity—and Michel Niellon’s Bourgogne Chardonnay 2021 does just that. It’s a wine that embodies the elegance of Burgundy, with a lively freshness and subtle complexity that make it an ideal introduction to the world of Chardonnay from this celebrated region. The nose is fresh and inviting, with vibrant citrus notes of lemon and lime, layered with green apple and a delicate touch of white flowers. It’s both bright and delicate, offering a purity that feels effortless. On the palate, the wine is crisp, with lively acidity that perfectly balances the fruit. A hint of minerality comes through, adding depth and focus, while the clean finish leaves you with a refreshing aftertaste that beckons for another sip.
