Jean Hugues & Guilhem Goisot, La Ronce, St-Bris, 2017

Drinking Window: 2020 – 2024
La Ronce vineyard sits on a hill that has both north and south exposures, hence both Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay grow there. The soil is a mixture of Kimmeridgian limestone and clay, yet there’s more power here than in Goisot’s other St-Bris. Purity and a touch of spice complement that power, while brilliant acidity keeps it fresh and lively. It’s a big-impact wine without a trace of heaviness.
