The 2021 Benoit Moreau Bourgogne Chardonnay is an exceptional white Burgundy, highly regarded as an over-performer for its appellation. Robert Parker rated it 89 points, noting its aromas of pear, confit citrus, and mint, leading to a medium to full-bodied, satiny palate with racy acids. Jasper Morris also gave it 89 points, highlighting its pretty and classic bouquet with fresh nutty notes, juicy character, and good balance, suggesting it's ready to drink from 2024-2026. This vintage saw an 18-month élevage, similar to Moreau's Grand Cru wines. The 2021 Burgundy vintage was generally mixed due to unpredictable weather, but this wine stands out. 【 Over-performer for the appellation 】 🍴 Food Pairing: This versatile Chardonnay pairs beautifully with shellfish, pasta, rich fish like salmon or tuna, and mild, soft cheeses.
