The vintage
The winter was mild, but the alternation of warm and cool periods slowed the vines' growth cycle, thus budbreak was expected for late March - early April. As spring frost spared our vines, flowering began toward the end of May. A first heatwave came in early July, followed by a second one between August 10th and 25th, slightly delaying veraison. At the Château de la Crée, harvest started on September 3rd under summer conditions. 2023 marks the second consecutive vintage delivering both above-average yields and quality. The Chardonnay has reached optimal ripeness while preserving a lovely freshness. The Pinot Noir shows great aromatic structure.
Tasting note
The nose is elegant, with notes of menthol and spice (coriander). On the palate, the attack is floral and delicately balanced between acidity and richness.
