Domaine du Vieux Château Vieilles Vignes Chablis Chardonnay

The 2009 is brilliant

I guess I haven't had very much Chablis with age on it. This was nutty and burnished; too light to partner with richer foods and missing that youthful vibrancy that goes well with lighter fare. Weird wine. 2009 vintage

Surprisingly ripe but without losing the citrus profile. Flinty bouquet with a touch of yellow flower. Nice and lean on the palate. Would age it

Ora tapas. Birthday Dinner post-lockdown.

Lorrie didn’t like

Great with lemon caper flounder, both in the dish and accompanying

Decent Chablis. First sip reminds me of a sense of cotton candy.

Corked

Very clean and dry.

Delicious 2010 Chablis, win-win
