TOP Drop September 2013

11.9.2013

This month’s Top Drop is a famous white wine from Burgundy. Indeed we are talking about Chablis.

Chablis is a town and region from the northern part of Burgundy and this white wine is almost exclusively made of Chardonnay. But, depending on exactly how and where in the region it hails, you will find very different tastes.

Typically, as this is not a really warm region, these wines are very dry and have a bit more acidic, mineral taste. But… you can also find wines that are much rounder, and softened with a bit more oak. This is exactly what the Pommier Chablis is all about. Suitably dry, strong hints of honey and light oak (as you normally only find in the Grand Cru’s) make this a very enjoyable wine and at a very attractive price.
