White flowers, rose, citrus and delicate musky notes. A Goldert Grand Cru of rare finesse from Ernest Burn.
Alsace Grand Cru Goldert Muscat La Chapelle 2020 Domaine Ernest Burn
The Grand Cru Goldert stands among the mythic terroirs of southern Alsace, renowned for its ability to magnify Muscat in a register that is both aromatic, crystalline and deeply complex. Domaine Ernest Burn offers here an emblematic interpretation: La Chapelle 2020, a Muscat of high expression, born from a limestone hillside with full eastern exposure, where perfect ripeness and floral finesse combine naturally.
The nose is intensely perfumed, without excess, with notes of white flowers, crisp grape, citrus zest and a delicate menthol touch characteristic of Goldert. On the palate, the wine distinguishes itself through a remarkable balance: solar amplitude of the 2020 vintage, aromatic purity, saline freshness and a long, airy finish, almost voluptuous yet always held by minerality. Ernest Burn's style remains true to its reputation: precision, vinosité and brilliance, with always very pure fruit.
La Chapelle 2020 drinks with immediate pleasure today, but also possesses the typical ageing potential of the cru: 8 to 12 additional years will allow it to gain in complexity, towards more spiced and honeyed nuances. Perfect at table with delicately spiced Thai cuisine, ceviche, fresh goat cheese or citrus salad.
