White Wine

From racy, crisp, Riesling, to rich full-bodied Chardonnay the white wine world has an incredible array of wine styles on offer.

Head to the Rhône Valley, where you’ll, Viognier, Roussane and Marsanne with their amazing textures and spice. Cross the border to Italy and it’s Arneis, Verdicchio, Greco, Carricante, and, Garganega offering up often flavours very different to those of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.

Revel in the diversity of white wine styles created, as winemakers seek to balance sugar, acid, alcohol, phenolics, the use of oak, lees, and, skin contact to create wines of harmony and personality.

Perhaps in Riesling more than any other white wine will you find nearly every style imaginable.

The wine world is producing better wines than ever before. In regions where laws permit broad experimentation with growing and making white wines is resulting in rapid evolution and refinement of styles.

Australia’s push to evolve Chardonnay is the perfect example!

Excellent drinking. A layer of that shroomy, wet wool earthy funk I often see, and enjoy in high acid whites. White flowers perfume. Ripe white grapefruit.

Benoît Moreau Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru 'Les Champs Gain' Blanc 2023

Benoît Moreau Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru ‘Les Champs Gain’ Blanc 2023

Chardonnay | France, Burgundy

The 1er Cru Champs Gain is in the heart of Chassagne-Montrachet, just below the famous En Cailleret. Like most of the surrounding crus, it sits on red clay and limestone soils. This profile is predisposed to wines which balance juicy concentration and mineral finesse. Benoît vinified the grapes from a handkerchief-sized parcel of 70-year-old vines located on the upper part of the vineyard. There, the soil is thinner and chalkier, and the vines quickly reach the bedrock. These vines also lie clo

Benoît Moreau Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru ‘La Maltroie’ Blanc 2023

Chardonnay | France, Burgundy

Situated just below the village, this great vineyard is Moreau’s largest 1er Cru, even if it remains small at just over 0.3 hectares, across two parcels. The first parcel is 70 years old and sits on thin, stony, calcareous soils, giving the wine finesse and plenty of salty minerality. The second parcel, aged 50 years, is located on slightly richer, brown clay soils and produces a more opulent, layered wine.“The 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Maltroie is lovely, wafting from the gl

Chardonnay | France, Burgundy

Rising above the village, this outstanding 1er Cru will be well known to buyers of Paul Pillot & Ramonet. The Moreau family have farmed here for generations, and Benoît himself converted this site to organics. Specifically, this wine comes from a tiny tranche of 60-year-old vines in the northern section of the vineyard (near Les Vergers), where the soils are less marked by the red clay often associated with this cru. Instead, there is a strong limestone presence, resulting in deep, yet mine

Benoît’s Bourgogne Blanc comes exclusively from three parcels, all in Chassagne-Montrachet. The vines are over 20 years old and on the lower slopes, terroirs with deeper, more clay-rich soils. Even at this level, the wine is aged for 18 months before release and is super—racy, mineral and long.“The 2023 Bourgogne Blanc wafts from the glass with aromas of pear, freshly baked bread, white flowers and nuts, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and saline palate that's pure and

The palate is very fluid, almost rounded, and bone-dry, making this a charming, light-bodied aperitif style. There is the merest edge of phenolics which adds a little structure.

The 2021er Hofberg Spätlese, as it is referred to on the consumer label, was made from fruit harvested at 86° Oechsle in the backside of the main hill of the vineyard and was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar (62 g/l). It offers a beautifully aromatic and complex nose of vineyard peach, fresh pineapple, smoke, minty herbs, fine spices (ginger), and almond.

"The 2017 Riesling Gutswein was harvested late with some botrytis and stopped at 12g/L of residual sweetness. Juicy apricot and peach beckon on the nose, promising fruity generosity that the palate promptly delivers - smooth and off-dry. Herbal lift adds dimension, while concentration and ripeness fill the mouth. Fine concentration, acidity and a pithy sense of phenolics and citrus are beautifully set against that slight sweetness, making this an alluring proposition. Off dry."Anne Krebiehl

The 2020 Cavallina is a fascinating iteration. Epic tension and minerality see it super tightly wound and taking time to resolve and build generosity. I initially tasted this over a year ago and saw the epic potential waiting for us. 6 months later it was only just starting to settle. It's one to be patient with. While the 2021 is a delicious drink straight out of the gate the 2020 is going to need time. It has a wonderful funk that I associate with low pH wines that have seen time on lees. All

The 2022 Goliardo A Telleira shows lots of finesse. They changed the élevage here to 1,500-litre foudre, which they think works better for Albariño than barrels, no matter how big they are, and this wine clearly shows it. It has the finesse of the sandy soils and a polished texture (a little more sleek, a bit à la Chenin) but still lively and with pungent flavors.Luis Gutiérrez, The Wine Advocate 95+ PointsMy Note on the 2021: Simply delicious.
