Wine Tasting – Brocard Chablis

Name: Jean Marc Brocard Chablis 2010
Variety: 100% Chardonnay
Region: Sainte Claire, Burgundy, France
Country: France
Year: 2010
Price: $22.99

Winery Review:A simple, fresh wine, with flavors of crisp, green apples and a touch of pear. It is light, poised, clean and ready to drink.—85 points—R.V. (from 2005 vintage)
 
My Review: The golden straw color of this wine spoke of its well-rounded flavor.  I got notes of smoke and dust in the nose accompanied by rose and raisins. On the palate, the smoke and dust translated, but vanilla and butter became prominent. This wine was sweet, smooth and silky and lingered a bit on the finish.

With food?: I tried this wine without food.
