Community Tasting Note

Callum's Corkers Likes this wine:

Friday, September 18, 2015 - Bought for 10.00 euros Intermarche supermarket, Flers, France September 2015.

First impression in mouth is lovely ripe creamy peaches, nice Chardonnay. Not many earthy mineral flavours here. Great fruit, though: white peach, a hint of lemon too. Very little oak, thank goodness. A dry/almost dry finish, some nice essence and power at the end, good length. Good wine, well made.

Value for money? Not sure it is, if I'm honest. It's 10.00 euros, which in terms of supermarket wine in France is not cheap, and I have had several white wines for half the price that have been easily as good. Burgundy whites tend to be pricey, and I have decided this, although well made, is not good value-for-money when you compare it to 2014s from Graves or Blaye and the Loire and Alsace, all of which in 2014 had very good vintages.
