Philippe Bouchard White Burgundy Chardonnay 2017

Joelle Thomson
Wine Writer

“Burgundy is the traditional home of Chardonnay in north east France and home to the grapes that made this full bodied, dry, crisp white wine. It’s super fresh in style with flavours of citrus, white peach and a light creamy finish. This is a modern French dry white made to drink now or soon. It’s refreshing to taste such a bright, clean style at this price from such a traditional wine region. It is sealed with a screwcap.” – 4 Stars, Joelle Thomson, Wine Writer
“Aromas of grapefruit, hazelnuts with biscuity notes.  A more restrained palate than NZ Chardonnays with green melon and stone fruit flavours, a linear and long palate structure with a creamy texture and refreshing lemon zest acidity.” – Lynnette Hudson, Experienced Winemaker and Advisor
Fruity nose. Burst of tropical fruits like citrus and pineapple with an undercurrent of nutty touch. The palate is crisp and flavourful with delicate elegance and a long finish.

Everyone’s favourite producer of bargain Beaujolais returns, and this time with one of the best value whites in Burgundy. This is a classic Chardonnay with a beautiful combination of vibrant fruit and meaty complexity. Harmonious notes of green apple, almond and chalk, think of ripe stone fruits and pineapples – you get the picture. Absolute stand out!
