Domaine des Baumard Quarts de Chaume 2017

Description

Leads with minerality, then a hint of botrytis, with the ever-present acidity adding balance. Not a weighty wine, its grandeur shows with a graceful and pristine presence. A touch of apricot skin character indicates that the wine is morphing from the flowery delicacy of the 2018 to the richness of the 2015. Drinking window: 2023-2043. Score – 97.
