Maison Glandien's 2022 La Lumiere Blanc is a testament to the visionary natural winemaking of Tino Kuban, a cult figure in Burgundy. This white wine, often identified as a Chardonnay, is part of Kuban's négociant project, sourcing grapes from sustainably farmed vineyards across various French regions. The 2022 vintage itself is noted for being generally good across Old and New Worlds. 【Masterclass in Chardonnay from a cult natural wine figure】
Tasting notes reveal a "masterclass in Chardonnay" with high acidity, well-integrated reduction, and a full, long-lasting flavor profile. Expect loads of citrus and stone fruit, complemented by smoky notes, rich tropical and pineapple nuances, and a delicate yet persistent finish. Some descriptions also hint at creamy textures, barley, corn, white flowers, acacia, subtle lemon curd, and a mineral-driven clean finish.
Food pairing suggestions include lighter fare such as chicken and turkey. Its vibrant acidity and fruit character would also complement seafood, creamy pasta dishes, or fresh goat cheese.
This elegant and well-structured white wine is perfect for a sophisticated dinner party, a celebratory lunch, or as an impressive aperitif. It's a superb choice for wine enthusiasts eager to explore the finesse of natural Chardonnay.
