Domaine de la Baume Elite d’Or Chardonnay 2024

The medium-gold-colored 2015 IGP Pays D’Oc Elite D’Or Blanc is made from 100% Chardonnay and was raised in 50% new barrels and 50% once-used. It offers classic notes of buttered stone fruits, toasted bread, spice and white flowers to go with a rich, beautifully textured style on the palate. Drink this richly fruity, balanced, thoroughly enjoyable white over the coming 2-3 years. Score – 90. (Jeb Dunnuck, robertparker.com, April 28, 2017)
