A rare bird. I am a fan of Nicolas Jacob wines but I have not found any vintage later than 2020. This is a skin contact wine . It is a blend of 80% Chardonnay & 20% Savagnin. Sensory over load . All kinds of orchard fruit pop up at varying times accompanied by earth and some funkiness. On the palate oranges , lemons , peaches and a hint of VA. Very juicy and complex. Wonderful acidity . I cannot find my picture of the back label. This might be the 2018 or 2019.
I apologize for the confusion .
