2005 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru, Vergers, Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard

My wife likes dry minerally white wines. While she has had her share of big buttery California Chardonays, about ten years ago she developed a taste for French Chardonays. This one is a great representation of what makes these wines enjoyable. It is dry yet bold in its steely gravely taste. Any yet, somewhere in the palate is a hint of apple and and lighter tastes. Very light oak and a slightly bitter finish. Hit the spot with some chicken last weekend.

Been very busy, will be adding a couple more wines over the Memorial Day weekend. Some better wines, pulled from storage for a taste.

Back in awhile.
