Domaine Lejeune "Les Monsnieres" Cote de Beaune Blanc 2022

Vin Chicago: 92+ Points

(1/2024) Pouring a medium straw color with streaks of shimmering green and platinum, this juice from the successful 2022 vintage viscously coats the glass. On the nose, subtle wood tones of vanilla and warm barrel create anticipation, while spiced pear, apple butter, lemon meringue, and edgy mineral themes are mouth-watering. Flavors of ripe yellow pear, red apple and white peach fruits are perfectly balanced by bristling acidity, a creamy mouthfeel, and a crunchy mineral spine that begs for the dinner table. Roast chicken, veal or shrimp pasta - yum!
