Julien Brocard Chablis La Boissonneuse 2022 – Elegant, Mineral-Driven Chardonnay from Burgundy

Description

Woodland Hills Wine Team Thanksgiving Pick

In the United States, the term Chablis is used to describe a semi-dry white wine usually in a 1.5 ltr. bottle or a bag in a box. There are other grapes used besides Chardonnay and the wine is of lower quality. THIS IS NOT THAT WINE!

In Chablis, the grape used is Chardonnay. Chablis is the northernmost Appellation d’origine Controlee of the Burgundy region. This region is known for its unique soil type called Kimmeridgian. This soil type produces wines of austerity, minerality, and finesse, and is often described as having a “flinty” note. Julien Brocard Chablis Boissonneuse is made from biodynamically grown grapes and aged for 10 months in large oak foudres. Aromas of honey, citrus peel, and white peach lend to lime zest, green pepper and candied orange on the palate. Medium body with gorgeous minerality and a slight salinity that finishes with a linear acidity that cleanses the palate. This wine will be paired perfectly with pretty much everything in your traditional Thanksgiving dinner.
