Domaine De La Tour Monts-Mains Chablis 1er Cru 2008, Burgundy, France


This wine's elegance and sophistication is a perfect example why Chablis is one of my favourite white wines.  This Chardonnay opens with aromas of pear, citrus, dried apple, hazelnut and fresh baked bread. The mouthfeel is smooth, creamy and buttery with fine acidity. This Chablis medium length finish is clean with ripe pears and hazelnut flavours lingering. I prefer my Chablis with a little more minerality, but that being said, this was a superb wine.     

This wine was purchased March 5, 2011 LCBO New Release at $29.95.
