2019 Le Nardian

This is the only white wine from Jonathan Maltus (of Le Dome), and it comes from a vineyard across the river made up of clay and limestone with 10-year-old vines. Le Nardian 2019 opens with notes of orange blossom, warm peaches and fresh Bosc pears with hints of dill seed, fennel and lemongrass. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied and shows a wonderful, silky texture with a soft, seamless acidity and lots of citrus and spice that shine through on the long finish. I love it!
