Domaine de la Gapette – Chardonnay 2014 Cuvée fût de chêne – Beaujolais Villages

The nose is fruity. It reveals notes of ripe citrus combined with a few notes of exotic fruit, slight notes of honey as well as touches of spices, a discreet note of brioche and cinnamon. The palate is fruity, soft, harmonious, fat and provides suavity, a small candy side, gourmandise and a fresh frame. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of quince, candied orange associated with a few slight notes of exotic fruits (papaya, lychee, a touch of guava) in the background, beeswax and slight woody notes on the finish. Good length and persistence in the mouth (with woody notes). The finish is powerful.
