Staff Pick Notes

Looking for your old standby Domaine Miles Chablis? Dom. de Genèves is a fine substitute and I actually liked it a how lot better. Here the stainless steel aging locks in a wonder aromatic nose with everything I love about cool climate whites. Crisp and light, but with strength and structure that is the magic that makes Chablis something more than just another Chardonnay.
