Chanson’s white Clos des Mouches boasts an attractive ripe apple aroma with hints of acacia, butter, and spice. Despite the heat of the year, there is no over-ripeness, and although the texture is creamy and rich, there is enough freshness to carry this to a pleasantly lingering finish. The grapes come from two hectares of Chanson’s holdings in the Clos des Mouches, pressed as whole clusters and fermented on native yeasts with most of their lees. The result is a delight that excels in finesse yet has the substance to age for at least a decade.
