Vincent Girardin
Cuvée Saint-Vincent Bourgogne Chardonnay
Beautiful Bourgogne lovely minerality, slight salinity, wet slate & slight petrol. Not much fruit, but what was there was well balanced and paired beautifully with seared scallops. A crowd pleaser ordered at a large dinner party.

Nov 10th, 2014Impressive on the nose - apple, pear and lemon notes. Well structured with round tannins and low acidity.

Jul 16th, 2015For the price, this is a really nice Chardonnay. Well balanced, clean, nice light acidity, and lingers just long enough.

Jan 27th, 2015I'm having a hard time finding any oak though the wine is said to have spent 10 months in oak. Apple, melon & a hint if citrus. And barely perceptible butter on the finish if you wait long enough. Clean and crisp.
