2023 Benoit Courault Gilbourg VDF Blanc, Loire, France
$54.00
From several plots located on the Coteau des Mailles in Faye d’Anjou, 40 years old vines of Chenin Blanc, aged 8 months in oak casks and barrique. Great vintage with a rich nose, ripeness but still with balance, the mouthfeel is dense and a wine that is delicious and long with some tension.
