Te Mata invests heavily into research and development in the vineyards, which really assists in a vintage like 2023, which imposes challenges. The elevation in all aspects of this wine from the already tremendously impressive Awatea is significant. Here, the tannins have a finer grain, the fruit is more persistent and the package is far more integrated and seamless.

It's the kind of Pinot Noir that feels both effortless and deeply considered, approachable yet layered, playful yet poised. This is Chambolle-Musigny at its most enchanting; a wine that captures the village's legendary charm and the artistry of one of its finest custodians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1204\" data-start=\"618\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Village includes the domaine's holdings in Fuées and Baudes, and it was bottled after a relatively short élevage. Offering up aromas of dark berries, raspberries, cassis bud and smoked meats, it's medium-bodied, supple and charming, with melting tannins and a saline, slightly carnal finish. \u003cstrong\u003e89Pts, Drink 2025-2037, William Kelley - The Wine Advocate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"appellance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49897828516033,"sku":"SK11682964","price":650.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0843\/3428\/0897\/files\/BE5D50B6-C901-47A3-9DBF-6E8CFB7CFDF9.jpg?v=1776391491"},{"product_id":"domaine-william-fevre-chablis-montmains-premier-cru-2020","title":"Domaine William Fevre Chablis 1er Cru Montmains 2020","description":"\u003cp\u003eMeet Domaine William Fèvre's 2020 Chablis Montmains Premier Cru, a wine born from one of Burgundy's most storied slopes and crafted by masters who've been perfecting the art since 1959. Montmains sits on ancient Kimmeridgian limestone, a geological gift that delivers serious minerality and structure without pretension. Crack it open and you'll find green apple, citrus zest, and white flowers greeting your nose, backed by that signature flinty, chalky character that makes Chablis so irresistible. The palate is where it shines: bright, taut, and impossibly refined, with acidity that dances and a finish that lingers with purpose. This is Chablis stripped to its essence; pure, precise, and utterly captivating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eConsisting of roughly equal parts Montmains, Butteaux and Forêts (the three sous-climats of Montmains), the 2020 Chablis 1er Cru Montmains offers up aromas of crisp green apple, white flowers, bee pollen and oyster shell. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and concentrated, it's taut and precise, concluding with a saline finish. \u003cstrong\u003e92Pts, Drink 2023-2045, William Kelley - The Wine Advocate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"appellance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49897838608577,"sku":"SK25633851","price":125.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0843\/3428\/0897\/files\/6DCB0AC1-FD04-4D23-9D02-99DA033AC3C3.jpg?v=1771141460"}],"url":"https:\/\/appellance.com\/collections\/latest-arrivals.oembed","provider":"Appellance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
