The same 'Long Term Storage' 2008 as the bottle but in large format, giving it even more potential to age and develop. Toasty, warm, nougat. Precise, upright, surprisingly delicate as it enters. The palate envelops nicely with plenty of structure and layers with a fun little bitter play; orange and pineapple peel, fudge and dried toast. A fabulous vintage right where it needs to be!
House Profile
One of the absolute gems of the village of Chouilly. Established in 1991 and run by the three brothers; Remi, Olivier and Jerome Legras they work with 18 hectares in Chouilly alone and have holdings in Vitry, Les Riceys and Ay. Their range is all fantastic but is all fantastic with their wines ageing gracefully into their 3rd decade but they are also pushing the boundaries with some fantastic single vineyard wines and a brilliant Chardonnay/Pinot Noir blend from Chouilly and Ay, with wines made from a blend of over 10 vintages.
