Domaine Céline et Frédéric Gueguen - Bourgogne Côtes Salines - Blanc - 2022

Wine:

A Selection Committee's favorite! The 2022 white Burgundy Côtes Salines is delivered in a very Chablisian style, with a lot of minerality and finesse. The ripe, floral, refined nose displays a subtle chalky minerality with a touch of almond. The palate is rich, fruity, salivating, and finely chiseled. It is an ideal wine to start the meal, which is both digestible and seductive. It can also be paired with goat cheese, fish, seafood, or a simple quiche Lorraine. A real chameleon. At this price, there is no hesitation possible! Rated 93/100 by our Selection Committee.
