Le Bourgogne Chardonnay 2008
Grape Variety : Chardonnay
Soil : Clay and limestone
Site : Côte Chalonnaise, Côte d'Or and more specifically Côte de Beaune.
The Vintage 2008 : After a beautiful spring, the weather at the start of summer was quite demanding. It became fine again from the end of August with much sun and a cold wind, which aided concentration of flavours. The harvest commenced in mid-September in perfect conditions under an Indian summer.
Tasting : Pale gold colour. Floral fragrances and citrus fruit notes with a hint of minerality. Well-structured. Good acidity and well-integrated minerality. Refreshing aftertaste.
Food pairing : Pâté, fish, charcuterie, and many goat cheeses.
