Details

Typical of what decent Chablis should taste like - not a trace of oak, pungent and flinty on the nose with a tad of creamy fruit underneath, this gets richer as the mineral characters give way to riper buttery sensations but then cut back by a long crisp bite. The kind of wine that gets nicer as you go along.

Grapes are sourced from Chablis, the most northerly wine region of Burgundy.

A classic food and wine combination would be smoked salmon or chunky king prawns, but this wine deserves you to be a bit more daring - the balance of concentrated creamy fruit and steely acidity could do wonders for vegetarian Indian, more exotic Chinese or even Thai food as long as it's not too strong on the chilli front.
