Community Tasting Note

The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine:

Monday, August 22, 2022 - 90€ at a restaurant in Paris. 100% Chardonnay. It was my birthday and wanted something white, Burgundian, and old. This fit the bill. The largest producer of wines from Chablis (and one of the larger cooperatives in France) but this really hit the spot. After coaxing the cork out, this golden wine clearly has some oxidation but it works. Most of the fruit is gone, but there are hints of lemon rind on both the nose and the palate. Nutty, nuanced, and layered, this is not for the faint of heart. It’s an older Chablis. Even an *old* Chablis and while it might not have much time left, it is completely magnificent tonight.
