Samuel Louis Smith Chardonnay Les Granitiers 2023 (750ml) BeauneThe 2023 Chardonnay Les Granitiers is grown in granitic soils, as the name suggests, primarily those found in the high elevation vineyards of Escolle (58%), Coastview (37%), and Pelio (5%), which all ripen at different times. As a result, the juice is fermented separately from each site in stainless steel and later aged in neutral barrels for 9 10 months. Smith picks the grapes relatively lean but not lacking in flavor, producing a wine thats light on

where both tannin and acid are abundant
