Patrick Piuze Bourgogne Tonnerre AC 2024 (750ml)

Patrick Piuze's 2024 Bourgogne Tonnerre is a white Burgundy built from Chardonnay grown in the northernmost reaches of the region, where cooler conditions and mineral soils shape a leaner, more crystalline style than you'll find further south. This is entry-level Burgundy in name only; the wine carries real substance.

Expect the bright acidity and floral restraint typical of unoaked or lightly oaked Chardonnay from this part of France, with citrus and stone fruit moving through a clean, mineral finish. It's a wine that rewards attention without demanding it, and it drinks well now while remaining stable enough to hold for a few years.
