Score 94/100 · Drink 2021-2028, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Mar 2021

A release of about 20,500 bottles, the Les Crêtes 2017 Valle d'Aosta Chardonnay Cuvée Bois reveals a saturated golden hue with luscious aromas of honey, dried apricot, nectarine and candied lemon peel. This is a full-bodied white wine that delivers plenty of texture and creaminess but that never feels heavy or flat. The high-altitude alpine climate gives this wine plenty of zesty acidity and inner freshness to enjoy with a creamy French serving such as chicken au poivre.

<p>Beautiful chardonnay with cooked apples, cream and lightly toasted oak, together with lemon undertones. Full body. Layered and creamy textured. Mountain chardonnay! Drink or hold.</p>
