Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre 2017
A cool, pure and elegant nose displays airy notes of apple, pear, honeysuckle and quinine, all of which is trimmed in discreet oak. As one would reasonably expect, the mouth feel of the medium-bodied flavors is more refined while offering a lovely sense of underlying tension and minerality. Lovely and worth a look.

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.
