Domaine Colbois
Bourgogne Chitry Chardonnay
Pretty solid Chablis-like Chardonnay. Clearly unoaked, the nose has tons of crushed rock, chalky minerality with some Granny Smith apple skin fruit underneath. On the palate, it’s quite minerally. I’m not sure if it’s the vintage or the terroir since I don’t have much experience with Chitry, but it seem to lack just a little bit of the crisp, acid-driven vibrancy I love in good Chablis. Still, it’s quite nice and a good value.
