Domaine Henri Boillot
Meursault Chardonnay
Serve just above cellar temp, once it opens up this wine has so much going on. Racy and fast at first, calms down and shows grilled pineapple, matchstick and zesty citrus. Balanced wine across the entire palate. No hard edges, with green apple, lemon and lime custard and hint of that pineapple in the back of the palate. Fun wine as an aperitif-
