    The 2021 Les Bouffants is an intelligent wine expressing its place and the cool vintage. Exposed to the south, making for a sunny yet windy site, it's located on small chalky pebbles known as griottes. It is delicately aromatic, reminding me of fennel, nectarine and elderflower. It is a serious yet seductive wine with lots of interest, blossoming finely in the mouth but always retaining a corset of sinew and tension. The finish is long with a chalky texture that keeps you licking the inside of your mouth.
