Boyer de Bar Chardonnay 'Les Peyrarols' '21

From Limoux's high-altitude limestone slopes, this Chardonnay shimmers with a pale green-gold hue. The nose offers Burgundian complexity - layers of lemon curd, struck flint, and hazelnut unfold with subtle oak spice. The palate delivers both richness and precision - flavors of golden apple, brioche, and wet stone unfold with vibrant acidity (6.8 g/L TA) that earned 93-95 point accolades. Fermented with native yeasts and aged 12 months in French oak (35% new), this 13.5% alcohol white finishes with a stony persistence. Pair with lobster thermidor or roasted poultry - the 2021 vintage shows Languedoc's potential for world-class Chardonnay.
