The 2011 Richard Leroy 'Les Noëls de Montbenault’ Chenin is a simply brilliant wine. It instantly bursts open with vibrant aromas of lemon zest, poached pears, dried white floral, smoke, flinty minerals and a gorgeous saline character that resonates through the wine. It presents a wonderful sense of vibrancy while remaining well balanced and focused through the pretty finish. An incredible showing that should be highly sought after.
