I vividly
remember the ‘Park Scene’ in Good Will Hunting movie.
This Noëlla Morantin 'Chez Charles' Sauvignon 2009 (as in Blanc) has an uncompromising taste.
I can only tell this, not because I have drunk many bottles of the wine,
but because I have spent time in the cellar and walked the vineyards with Noëlla
Morantin. I have smelled the cellar and
touched the vines that she farms. Her wines are inseparable from the vigneronne.
Every now and then,
not too often, even through tasting and drinking, I simply cannot translate the
emotional impact of a particular wine.
The tasting notes become so distant from the experience of being
there. It is as though you are trying to
describe the fragrance of your lover the very first time you pressed your nose
against her flesh.
Of all the vignerons and vigneronnes that I represent, Noëlla Morantin 'Chez Charles' Sauvignon 2009 is one of those ‘Park Scene’
bottles for me.
