Nicolas Maillart — Les Jolivettes 2020

Les Jolivettes 2020

Nicolas Maillart | Brut Nature | Vintage 2020

With some growers you quickly realize: This is going to be more than just a snapshot.

Nicolas Maillart is exactly that kind of case for me – not because one bottle impressed me, but because each new bottle opens a new chapter. Les Jolivettes 2020 was my fifth Maillart – and clearly one of the most impressive.

Tasting Notes

Clear, powerful and almost saline with a consistent structure. More straightforward and precise than other cuvées, uncompromisingly dense with less fruit and more tension.
