The Le Grand Clos Chardonnay is undeniably the most noble yet reticent of the Le Clos Jordanne set once again, exhibiting a chalky, lime-tinged, almost granitic, quarry-dust quality permeates every layer of the wine. These notions mingle together on the nose with a touch of the just slightly waxy, lightest of acacia honey aromas. The texture is fine and refined with slight ‘tilleul’ (perhaps even chestnut) tones on the midpalate and finish. Impressive in its understatement, even the savoury minerals are in check: nothing is out of place.
