Château de Berne La Grande Cuvée (White) 2022 - Highly RecommendedBright gold. Lots of rich honeyed beeswax and softly-spoken stone fruit. A whisper of black tea, bergamot, garrigue and chalky limestone minerality. Oak quite present, adding to that perfumed, intense, waxy minerality. Beautiful spice and evolution, with softened, velvety acidity. Acidity especially evident on the finish. Charming, and showing real depth and complexity. Weighty, traditional, and showing Alexis Cornu's penchant for wines that develop seriously evocative tertiary charm - this really benefits from decanting and letting breathe to allow it to shine.
