Domaine d'Angerville is best known as a leading biodynamic producer in Volnay, but since 2012 they have been making some stunning wine in the Jura as Domaine du Pélican. Their vineyards include five hectares previously belonging to the legendary Jacques Puffeney (now retired) and everything is farmed biodynamically. The wines were superb - elegant and wonderfully refined - from the start and just keep getting better. Grand Curoulet is one of the best terroirs in Arbois, and this Chardonnay is outstanding. Aged in 500l barrels with no new oak, it has amazing tension and complexity.
This has the salty aroma of the straight Chardonnay plus more fresh and stony citrus with a touch of green fruits and herbs. Crisp but rounded and just a little creamy in the mouth, great tension and freshness. Light on its feet but with underlying power. Tightly coiled and with enormous persistence.17.5 points
