Note di degustazione
Morlet's 2021 La Proportion Doree—a barrel-fermented blend of 68% Sémillon, 31% Sauvignon Blanc and 1% Muscadelle—is seemingly in a bit of a closed state, offering up subtle notes of beeswax and citrus, with hints of fig and melon on the nose. In the mouth, it's medium to full-bodied, with a fine, silky texture and ample length on the finish.

Composed of mostly Semillon, along with 31% Sauvignon Blanc and a small but fragrant addition of 1% Muscadelle, the 2021 La Proportion Doree comes from 30-year-old, dry-farmed vines and was barrel fermented. It pours a bright yellow color and takes on another gear in the glass, cascading open with generous aromas of fresh currants, candle wax, jasmine, and a lift of white pepper spice. Medium to full-bodied, its structure offers fantastic definition, and it has a concentrated, rich texture, an even spine of acidity, and exceptional length. This is a stunning textural blend to enjoy over the coming 10-12 years. 850 cases were produced.
The 2021 La Proportion Dorée is a gorgeous, exotic wine. Tangerine, graphite, passionfruit, mint, baked apple tart and jasmine lend notable complexity. Rich and textured, with terrific brightness, the 2021 is a classic Morlet offering. This textured, viscous white will be best enjoyed at the dinner table alongside similarly rich dishes.
