This French Chardonnay is bright golden yellow in the glass and just pretty to look at. The nose is floral with Meyer lemon notes. In the mouth, this Pouilly Fuissé is nutty with ripe pear / golden apple and a pleasant level of minerality. The finish lingers. Paired this Chardonnay with grilled diver scallops over risotto and it was super.
I’m not a fan of huge buttery Chardonnays, but this wine is light and refreshing enough to convince me to make it part of my repertoire.
Around $25.
