Every time I taste this wine, I try to be objective. But life is too short and I freaking love this Ploussard. Definitely among my favourites, not that I've tasted that much.
It's just beautiful. It's a sunny Sunday afternoon in the woods with your SO. Red flowers, white pepper, dogwood, forest floor (hehe) and a bit of barnyard to spice things up. Delicate and quaffable. One of those wines I would drink non-stop.
About
Poulsard planted in clay soils from a lieu-dit within the Arbois AOC called La Mulatiere. Destemmed, 20 days maceration, without extraction. Then pressed before continuous fermentation and ageing in 600-litre old oak barrels. Aged six months in bottle before release.
