Dominique Cornin, Pouilly-fuisse Clos Du Roy, 2021
🏰 The 2021 Dominique Cornin Pouilly-Fuisse Clos du Roy is a 【superlative, sumptuous organic Chardonnay from the Mâconnais】, highly praised for its richness and finesse despite the cooler vintage. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate rated it 92 points, noting its honeyed orchard fruit, citrus zest, white flowers, and lilac notes, with a medium to full-bodied, bright, satiny, pure, layered, and saline palate. Vinous also gave it 90 points, highlighting its well-balanced palate with mandarin and peach skin tang. The 2021 vintage in Burgundy, while challenging with lower yields, produced wines with good acidity and freshness.
🍴 Chinese Cantonese food pairing: This elegant white Burgundy would be fantastic with steamed scallops with vermicelli and garlic, baked lobster with cheese, or even a classic Cantonese roast chicken. For Western pairings, consider pan-seared sea bass with beurre blanc, chicken in a creamy mushroom sauce, or aged Comté cheese.
🥂 fit for event suggestion: An excellent choice for a sophisticated dinner party, a special family gathering, or as a thoughtful gift for a Chardonnay lover.
