Bougros Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay

maybe it’s my mood tonight but this wine was stellar. has fleshed out since my last bottle and simply has everything. body, lemony acidity, some chalk, but all in harmony. best white wine in a while and I’ve had some stunners recently.

Bougros for me the weakest of the grand crus. Still a tasty lemoney, chalky delight.

This is quite tasty and still quite fresh. Plenty of lemony acidity, medium body, chalky.

Rather rich opulent Chablis with chalky stony undertones. Early.

Typical bougros the weakest of the grand crus.

Of all grand cru Chablis for me Bougros is the weakest, stil a great lemon and chalk wine.

Lemons and chalk. Young

Just finished after a 2017 dauvissat les clos. This is so much more Chablis, just great oysterly, chalky, salty goodness.

A bit short and simple but not bad and may just be the day. Some stone fruit, Chamomile, and slate. Drink these early.

Back to back 2017 bougros and 2016 les preuses. The 2017 bougros is a fantastic effort. More forward, more fruit, a bit somekey, lots of citrus and pear, more approachable, good acidity and saltiness. Better than the 2016 for now.
