Certainly, thank you for the clarification. Here’s the updated tasting notes with placeholders removed.

Introduction
The 2021 Domaine Cheysson Beaujolais Blanc offers a bright and nuanced expression of Chardonnay from Beaujolais, France. Known primarily for its Gamay-based reds, Beaujolais also produces limited amounts of Chardonnay, especially in the hands of producers like Domaine Cheysson. This wine embodies the elegance and freshness of the region, with a focus on minerality and crisp acidity.

Terrior
The Beaujolais region provides an ideal setting for Chardonnay, especially in sites with clay-limestone soils and moderate slopes that promote excellent drainage and sun exposure. The region’s continental climate, characterized by warm summers and cool nights, allows for gradual ripening, which helps retain natural acidity and brings out the mineral qualities in the wine.

Appearance
Bright pale gold with greenish highlights, indicating freshness and youthful vibrancy.

Nose
The nose opens with aromas of lemon zest, green apple, and pear, followed by hints of white flowers, wet stone, and a slight nuttiness, characteristic of Chardonnay from this terroir.

Palate
On the palate, this wine is lively and medium-bodied, with flavors of citrus, crisp apple, and peach. The minerality from the limestone-rich soils provides a delicate chalky texture, complemented by subtle notes of almond and a refreshing acidity that carries through to the finish.

Finish
The finish is clean, with lingering notes of citrus and mineral undertones, giving a refreshing and balanced close that highlights both the fruit and the region’s unique minerality.

Overall Impression
The 2021 Domaine Cheysson Beaujolais Blanc is a refined Chardonnay that reflects the Beaujolais terroir beautifully. Its fresh, mineral-driven profile makes it versatile and highly drinkable, ideal as an aperitif or paired with dishes like seafood, poultry, and mild cheeses.
