Chablis 1er cru Fourchaume 2014
Here too there is a touch of wood offsetting the slightly riper aromas of various dried yellow orchard fruit, floral and iodine scents. There is fine power and mid-palate density to the delicious, mouth coating and intense medium-bodied flavors that also possess solid amounts of acid-buffering dry extract, all wrapped in a clean, clean, focused and impressively persistent finale.

Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
