Bourgogne Blanc Les Mechalots 2018 Sylvain Pataille
Bourgogne Blanc Les Mechalots 2018 is a white wine produced by Sylvain Pataille. It is made from pure Chardonnay grapes that come from vineyards planted in 2010 located in Marsannay. This wine is made according to Pataille's production philosophy, which focuses on natural and sustainable winemaking methods: the harvest is by hand and fermentation takes place spontaneously with indigenous yeasts on whole bunches, followed by a period of 18 months of ageing in barrels on fine lees. Pataille's Bourgogne Blanc Les Méchalots is a luminous straw yellow in colour, with a bouquet of lime blossom and jasmine, fruity aromas of mandarin, mineral salts and a touch of wood. The palate is well balanced with strong acidity and a savoury finish. A beautiful example of a Burgundy white wine.
