Domaine du Pelican Arbois Chardonnay En Barbi 2022
The Domaine du Pélican Chardonnay is the very essence of Jura’s unique terroir. Since 2012, this cuvée has captured the purity and intensity of the region, with grapes harvested from the estate’s highest, most elevated parcels. These vineyards sit on marly soils, with a mix of Bajocian limestone rocks—perfect for developing a Chardonnay that’s as vibrant as it is complex. The nose is a delightful blend of fresh pears, a light leesy note, and zesty citrus, with a touch of spice that’s just subtle enough to intrigue. On the palate, it's all about crisp acidity, with intense lemon, grapefruit, and a bracing salty-sour finish. There’s a surprising depth and richness that lingers on, along with a tiny hint of struck match—a mark of its gentle reduction. This is not just Chardonnay; it’s a wine that sings with freshness, purity, and a mouth-watering finish.
