One of the finest values in the range is the 2019 Ladoix Le Clou d'Orge (Domaine Gagey), a bright and chiseled wine that evokes pear, waxy citrus peel, struck match and vanilla pod. Medium to full-bodied, layered and incisive, it concludes with a saline, mouthwatering finish.

A sleek, mineral-driven white, underlined by brisk acidity and flavors of apple, vanilla and bread dough. Turns compact, except for the juicy finish. Drink now through 2025. 140 cases imported.
