Domaine de La Roche Bleu, Le Clos des Molières, 2015
£38.00 (inc VAT)
Jasnières is so rare, it’s almost mythical. Especially when it comes to the really good stuff. Produced in Northern France, in a tough climate where in some years, yields can be almost non existent. Yet in these harsh conditions, certain. artisans push on, because when Jasnières can be mastered, the results are astonishingly good. Often considered to be the Grand Cru for Chenin Blanc, these wines are ethereal, brilliant, complex and utterly delicious. The Clos des Molières is produced as only a few barrels per year, raised and aged in old oak, to give the crisp, chenin fruit that rich body and texture to bring out the subtle spice, nut and give a creamy texture. This wine will go brilliantly at Christmas and delight any discerning enthusiast or amateur alike.
Notes: Dry, Zesty, Light Bodied
