Domaine de la Croix Senaillet Saint-Veran Les Rochats 2017

All hail White Burgundy! Racy-fresh chardonnay from Burgundy’s southernmost appellation is SO RARE to see here at Last Bottle (right? This just never comes around NEARLY enough…) that we can scarcely grok it! 90 POINTS, killer 2017 vintage, ORGANIC, uber-sweet price, and a massive crowd-pleaser, we PROMISE. If you don’t love this, why, we’ll come to your house and clean the gutters, do laundry, and give your cat a bath (see, we’re really serious).

“The 2017 Burgundy reds are a mixed bag, but the whites shine brilliantly…” – James Suckling

And shine it does…like Walter White’s head at high noon in the New Mexico desert! Anywho...the PRICE! Under $20, are you crazy? Are we crazy? Well, we don’t have much, and it is Sunday...maybe the accountant won’t notice. How we found this gem is nothing short of a modern-day vinous miracle, but we did get just BARELY enough for all the chardonnay-hungry across this country. So…FLY! The CITRUS! Eureka lemon, key lime, tangerines for days...oh MY! A little white peach, perhaps, some minerally, chalky, oyster shell, of course…but most importantly, always, quintessentially imperative with White Burgundy…ACID. Brisk, racy, bracing, take your pick, but revel in the cheek-tingling goodness of it – all at an absurd price. There’s concentration, power, and muscle in this – way, WAY more than could be expected in a White Burgundy for this RIDONKULOUS price. Six years young and not a pittance of oxidation! This is holding better than Flex Seal in those infomercials...DANG! So good! Of course, there is not a lot – when it comes to WHITE BURGUNDY at the sort of Last Bottle deal level, there NEVER is! So stock up – who knows when this will come around again!!!
