Frédéric Gueguen (Domaine des Chenevières)
Vieilles Vignes Chablis Chardonnay
Chablis, Burgundy, France
2014v. Essence of Chardonnay- lemon, tart yellow apples, and a slick minerality on the finish. Compared to this label's regular Chablis this Vielles vignes, or old vines, version is a little less crisp on the acidity, but has a more refined body that keeps you coming back to the bottle. (Vintage could have also been a factor- 2015 vs. 2014 on this bottle, but I think the ratings are pretty similar.) Lovely stuff! 12.5%
