Arbois Chardonnay La Croix Rouge Adeline Houillon & Renaud Bruyère 2016
The wine
This Arbois charms us with the finesse of its aromatic expression. We thus find mouth-watering and ripe fruity and balanced notes (peach, mirabelle plum) counterbalanced by invigorating salinity. The palate is velvety and blessed with wonderful creaminess, also enhanced by acidity which gives it persistence and good aging potential.
