Description
Château Simone, Palette Blanc
After a 30-minute decant, serve Simone’s 2015 Blanc in bulbous Burgundy stems, around 50-55 degrees, and prepare for a kaleidoscopic show: yellow apple, poached pear, salt-preserved lemon, nougat, lees, petrol, crushed stone, honeysuckle, wild herbs, rosin, oak spice, and exotic flowers. This is a full-bodied libation, no doubt, but the freshness and tension of each sip give it an extra dimension that legions of white wines over 14% ABV lack. It’s a contemplative wine—warm, inviting, powerful, broad, poised, unctuous—that leaves a long, savory, wholly unique finish. Enjoy your bottles now and over the next 5-8 years. Cheers!
NOTE: This wine is only available as a pre-offer and we expect it to arrive at our warehouse in 2-3 weeks.
