La Chablisienne
Château Grenouilles Chablis Grand Cru 2013
A beguilingly perfumed nose features a broad-ranging nose of pear, apple, white peach and ocean breeze scents that are trimmed in just enough wood to notice. There is excellent volume and fine intensity to the lush and very round medium weight plus flavors that possess fine power and plenty of mouth coating extract, all wrapped in a citrus-inflected, balanced and impressively persistent finale.
À propos de Burghound.com
Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
