2020 Domaine Pierre Labet Beaune Clos du Dessus des Marconnets Blanc 750ml

Experience the rare "high-altitude" elegance of the 2020 Domaine Pierre Labet Beaune "Clos du Dessus des Marconnets" Blanc 750ml at VS Liquor. This unique plot, a near-monopole for the Labet family, is situated just above the Premier Cru "Les Marconnets" on the northern edge of Beaune, bordering Savigny-lès-Beaune. Perched at 300 meters, its eastern exposure and limestone-rich soils impart a tension and freshness more akin to Puligny-Montrachet than the traditionally broader whites of Beaune. Under the direction of François Labet (proprietor of the legendary Château de la Tour in Clos Vougeot), this 100% Chardonnay is vinified with the same meticulous care as the estate's Grand Crus—using 450-liter barrels and a light-touch "whole bunch" pressing to preserve the site's signature mineral focus.

Whether you are seeking a prestigious gift for a Burgundy connoisseur or a high-scoring masterpiece (90-92 Points, iDealwine; 89-91 Points, Vinous) to pair with seared scallops, roasted poultry with tarragon, or a platter of creamy Comté and Gruyère cheese, our online purchase system makes ordering effortless. Take advantage of our reliable home delivery service to have this 13% ABV expression of hilltop terroir brought directly to your door. In the glass, it reveals a brilliant lemon-gold color. The bouquet is highly sophisticated and layered, offering aromas of white peach, lime zest, and honeysuckle, intertwined with notes of toasted almond, vanilla, and a striking flinty minerality. On the palate, it is medium-to-full-bodied and incredibly well-defined, delivering a concentrated core of citrus and orchard fruit framed by a racy acidity and a long, energetic finish that showcases the unique "sheen" of the 2020 vintage.
