Lise et Bertrand Jousset ‘Premier Rendez-Vous’ Vin de France (Montlouis-sur-Loire) 2019

€29.77

Lise and Bertrand’s benchmark Montlouis Chenin. Rich but precise juice that moves from creamy to salty in a straight line along the palate. 2018 is singing right now, retaining a pretty core of primary white flower, yellow fruit, and citrus aromas while complex developed notes (honey, baked apple, iodine) creep up along the edges. Profound and layered stuff that’s also fun and thirst-quenching.
