2022 Théo Dancer, Roc Breïa, Chardonnay, Vin de France

The 2022 Chardonnay has turned out beautifully, bursting with aromas of pear, white flowers, bread dough, and hazelnuts. It is followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy palate with a satiny attack that segues into a charming, lively mid-palate with a good cut and a saline finish. Dancer sold off two-thirds of his crop in 2021, but the quality of his raw materials in 2022 should permit a less draconian selection.
