Domaine de Chantemerle
Fourchaume Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay
Chablis, Burgundy, France
With flecks of green shining through its yellow robe, the 2019 Domaine Chantemerle Fourchaume is a brilliant young Chablis, a touch reticent in youth as you might expect but a very enjoyable wine nonetheless. The nose is a little muted for now, with glimpses of peach, chamomile and wet stone, while the palate is taut but generous, spilling out over the tongue with juicy lime, Granny Smith apple and terrific chalkiness. If it were a case, I’d look forward to trying this in a year or two’s time; alas, this was a lone half bottle but a great accompaniment to prawn orzo pasta.

Pale lemon with aromas of stone and tropical fruits. Made from 40-year old vines, aged in 100% stainless steel. On the palate flavors of bright lemon citrus with crisp apple and peach notes. This medium-body wine has crisp acidity, good balance and nice mouthfeel, smooth long finish ending with creamy mineral texture. Very Nice!
