Chardonnay

Chardonnay is one of the most-widely planted varieties in the world.

Arguably not the most characterful grape, hence its common ageing in oak, yet at its pinnacle in Burgundy it produces some of the greatest (and certainly most expensive) white wines in the world. Look out for unoaked Chardonnay, it can make a pleasant change, and usually goes down very well with all those people who...

Louis Roederer, Collection 243, Champagne Brut, NV

A recent creation from this great house (replacing the Brut Premier): based on 59% from the 2018 vintage with 31% from a solera-like “Perpetual Reserve” and 10% 2012-17 vintage reserve wines aged in oak; 42% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir and 18% Pinot Meunier. Overtly flavoured - ripe citrus and nuts - but so refined.

"Subtle, muted nose promising riches beyond. Many-layered with quite a strong streak of lime. Lively, long and complex. Sophisticated, offering more than just age. Persistence too – in fact it builds on the end like a fine burgundy. 17/20. 2023-2028", Jancis Robinson MW, jancisrobinson.com, tasted May 2023.

Great choice of good-value wines in the January sales. The website is really easy to use to make up an order. Delivery, as is often the case, was within 24 hours and, as usual, was well-packed.

This was yet another quick and painless transaction, as I have come to expect from SV&S.
