J-Hugues & Ghislaine Goisot Saint-Bris Corps de Garde Blanc 2009
100% Sauvignon Gris or Fié Gris. This is superb yet radically different; more Pinot Gris like with nutty, pear and rose water hints and a Burgundian texture. This comes from a warmer, north western slope with more brown clay. A very complex wine with a racy structure and a long close. A fascinating and rare Burgundy!
"(from sauvignon gris vines planted in Kimmeridgian soil). A more restrained but equally ripe nose that is similar save for the additional mineral and mildly exotic fruit notes, gives way to rich, citrusy and admirably pure flavors that offer superb intensity on the bone dry and palate staining finish. Again, excellent quality for the appellation and while I prefer ever-so-slightly the greater complexity of the Moury, this is right behind it". 89 points, drink 2013+, Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, Issue 44.
