Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Meursault
Country: France

Shop Review:
A powerfully rich wine that brings in delicious white and yellow fruit flavors. It is unctuous, rounded, made richer with toast then given a boost by a streak of fresh citrus acidity. Good, plump white Burgundy.

My Review:
I liked this wine. It was a good fruitful smelling chardonnay, full of citrus fruits. Crisp on the nose and on the tongue. Some say that this wine is over oaked, but I found it to be rather enjoyable. I would have loved to try this wine in a food paring with cheese and bread.
