Beautiful yellow color with pale green reflections. The nose is alluring with a distinctive Chablis style of vine peaches, banana, citrus and a touch of brioche.

Date: Friday, August 30, 2019"Aromas of sweet citrus oil, iodine and smoke introduce the 2017 Chablis Villages (Maison), a medium to full-bodied, elegantly textural wine with a youthfully tight-knit profile and a saline finish. This contains some purchased fruit and is vinified and raised in stainless steel tanks."
