Patchwork Chardonnay

Domaine Tissot

A blend of multiple blocks (25 years or older). This is Stéphane’s opening salvo for those who want to tango with his chardonnay before committing to his single parcel bottlings—sure to convert any skeptic.

“Aromas strongly suggest tart lemon zest, toasted coconut, roasted almonds, sour green olives, cardamom, yellow flowers and sweet marzipan. Suspend all expectations of “Chardonnay-ness.” The startling bouquet of tropical, spicy and savory tones — as well as the interplay of zestiness and creaminess on the palate — makes this is a multidimensional wine. The joyride of acidity from this wine is like a rollercoaster, it twists and turns with each sip, and leaves you salivating for another sip on the finish.” - Kevin Day
