Beaujolais Villages Blanc - 2023 - Jean Claude Lapalu
Domaine Jean-Claude Lapalu
This white will make you see colours! A bottle I wager won’t last half an hour... A very ripe Chard, carried by notes of white flowers, citrus and fresh butter. Easy to drink, great stuff!

Jean-Claude Lapalu
Jean-Claude Lapalu is a vigneron who works in harmony with nature, situated on the slopes of Brouilly since 1996. His 9-hectare estate is certified organic, even if he does not mark this on his labels. He also bottles his wines with next to no sulphur – just 1 g/hl. It would be easy to imagine then that some oenophiles might dismiss him as lazy tree hugger, and yet for some time now...
