Description

This cuvée Rétrospective 00-14, signed Bastien Papleux, is a blend of the House's wines dating from 2000 to 2014 thanks to a perpetual reserve.

Chardonnays from the Damery hillsides have been blended year after year with our perpetual reserve since 2000. The old wine educates the young, the new vintages mingle with the old, bringing freshness, tension and depth to this cuvée. Bastien Papleux

The grapes are vinified in wood, with no malolactic fermentation, fining or filtration. For this edition, 976 bottles were produced on March 24, 2016.

The nose is open and reveals floral and pear aromas, as well as spicy (white pepper) and slightly smoky notes.

On the palate, the attack is supple, then the wine's body blossoms and the consistency, quite full-bodied, combines with the delicate freshness of acidity to give a feeling of serenity. The palate is round, dynamic, tender, delicate and warm.

The finish is harmonious, long and structured by a hint of chalky minerality.

Maison Goutorbe Bouillot's Cuvée Rétrospective 00-14 is a perfect match for salmon or tuna carpaccio, sea bass tartar or oysters in jelly.
