Domaine Michel Mallard Ladoix 1er Cru Les Grechons 2016
PRE-SALE SHIPS & AVAILABLE FOR PICKUP EARLY FEBRUARY 2025! Michel Mallard is an extremely talented vigneron and the head winemaker at Domaine d’Eugenie in Vosne-Romanée. His Grechons 1er Ladoix vineyard is a stone's throw from the Grand Crus on Corton, in particular the white, Corton-Charlemagne. Mallard is one of the fastest rising starts in Burgundy and we are very lucky to have a crack at one of his back vintage wines. We are looking to get the reds down here later this year!90-92WA (Kelley)The 2016 Ladoix 1er Cru Les Gréchons Blanc has another crisp, oyster shell-scented bouquet with really quite outstanding mineralité, almost Chablis-like. The palate is medium-bodied with a fine seam of acidity, very focused, almost Zen-like in style with a brisk marine-tinged finish. This is equal to the 2015 last year and might surpass it. Our Tasting Note: This beautifully maturing White Burgundy will show you how an aged white burgundy tastes. A light a gold color, the hue has vitality.
