100% Chardonnay from some of the best vineyards in the Mâcon Villages of southern Burgundy. Pneumatic press, racking of the must, fermentation at 18°C in stainless tank and after malolactic fermentation. Aged in stainless steel tanks for 6 months. Winemaker ~ Georges Brichon at Blasons. Clean, green unoaked Chardonnay. A little spicy in the mouth. Feels like warm alcohol but is apparently only 12.5%. I find it unbalanced. New vintage and producer, available now, 247 stores, exclusive, screw cap12.50% 14/10/2009
